With one game already postponed this week and others being thrust into jeopardy because of COVID-19, coaches have begun exploring a 12-game schedule to finish out the 2020 season.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported "multiple" coaches have suggested slashing a fourth of the schedule. Each team would eliminate three divisional games and one additional game outside the division. It's unclear at this point whether the discussion has reached the league office or if it's something teams and players would consider.
Positive COVID tests have already led to the postponement of the Steelers-Titans game to Week 7, along with moving the Patriots-Chiefs game to Monday or Tuesday.
