Is an NFL season during the COVID-19 pandemic possible? We asked epidemiology experts to find out

Power brokers for the Power 5 conferences are discussing this week whether to cancel the 2020 college football season because of the health and safety challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic.

So what about the NFL, which is scheduled to kick off its season in a month?

A majority of NFL teams will begin training camp practices this week at their team facilities with the hope players and coaches won’t contract the highly contagious coronavirus, which could hamper the ability to play games and possibly the season.

The Cowboys will conduct their first practice on Friday at The Star in Frisco.
