While the NFL released its 2020 schedule Thursday, the league still is putting contingency plans into place should the coronavirus pandemic force the league to push games back.
ESPN's Adam Schefter shared the league's plan in an ESPN NFL schedule special, which featured the following tidbits:
- If games are delayed, earlier weeks on the schedule could be pushed until after Week 17. That means any week on the released schedule could technically turn into Week 1.
- Super Bowl LV is slated for Feb. 7 but could be moved back, depending on a potential delay.
