Roger Goodell Anticipates Virtual Offseason For 2021 And Beyond

2021 isn’t going to look a whole lot different than 2020. Not for the next couple of months, anyway. Barring any sort of drastic improvement of the COVID pandemic, Roger Goodell all but assured the NFL will be virtual following Sunday’s Super Bowl. In his annual “State Of the Union” address, Goodell was asked what teams and fans should expect for the next several months. Goodell took it a step further and said COVID could shape how the NFL operates permanently.

“We anticipate that I think a lot of the things that we did last year with respect to training camps, with respect to the offseason [will be done again],” he told reporters Thursday.
