Owners Expected To Approve Expansion Of Postseason Today

Prior to the proliferation of COVID-19, the NFL had an annual League Meeting scheduled to be taking place right now in Tampa. That proved to be the first event to be directly affected by the pandemic, with the league announcing that it would be canceled, subsequently suspending all travel, including pre-draft visits.

While the event itself may have been canceled, the conference call is still on and set to take place today. The agenda has been significantly curtailed—any discussion of and voting on potential rules changes has been postponed to a later date, whenever they may be able to gather in person again—there are still significant matters to discuss.
