NFL playoff time is near, and as the number of COVID-19 cases keep rising across the country, the fact the league has yet to announce plans of a postseason bubble remains a hot topic.
That’s hardly a surprise considering the NBA and NHL recently completed their 2019-2020 seasons with “hard” bubbles, while MLB used a “soft” one to complete its postseason.
During a conference call with reporters on Tuesday, NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith and NFLPA president J.C. Tretter essentially said that while the possibility of a postseason bubble has been discussed, there doesn’t appear to be a strong push to make it materialize at the moment.
