NFL's Dr. Allen Sills Says Bubble Not 'Safest Course' for League Amid COVID-19

chief medical officer Dr. Allen Sills did not rule out the possibility the league will use a bubble-like environment for its 2020 playoffs, but he said it is against doing so for now.

"All options are on the table," he said, per Mike Jones of USA Today. "... We don't feel that's the safest course of action for us."

Sills noted that there have been 100 positive COVID-19 tests since the start of training camp and said the league's protocols should mitigate the spread of the virus.
