The NFL's offseason schedule has been altered by the coronavirus pandemic with pro days and in-person prospect visits to team facilities notably canceled in the lead-up to the 2020 draft.

That won't affect a handful of prospects slated to be picked early, such as LSU quarterback and surefire No. 1 overall selection Joe Burrow.

However, Bruce Feldman of The Athletic relayed a story from an LSU staffer that Burrow still wanted the Tigers' pro day to occur to give teammates better chances of being drafted.

This story I heard today from an #LSU staffer is a good window into why coaches love Joe Burrow so much.
