The NFL is expected to involve 50-plus prospects in the 2020 draft, communicating virtually, "via video, social media, etc," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
"The NFL has begun inviting top prospects to participate—virtually—in next month’s draft," Pelissero tweeted on Monday. "In all, 50+ are expected to be involved via video, social media, etc. No trip to Las Vegas, but players and families will receive a 'draft package' as well."
The league canceled the live portion of the draft earlier this month amid the coronavirus pandemic. The draft was originally slated to be held in Las Vegas on April 23-25, and it will still be held on the same dates despite the altered format.
