League Issues Memo Detailing Specifics Of ‘Pre-Phase One’ Of Offseason Program

For teams with new head coaches, Phase One of the offseason was supposed to be set to begin yesterday. Since team facilities are shut down, of course, that’s not really physically possible. But it is virtually possible, and the NFL and NFLPA are working toward making that a reality.
