Saints head coach Sean Payton has suggested the league should create a postseason bubble amid the coronavirus pandemic, NFL VP of football operations Troy Vincent told reporters Wednesday.
While the league isn't ruling out creating a playoff bubble, Vincent said, any kind of campus environment would need support from the players' union.
"We didn't use the term 'bubble,'" Vincent said, "but that 'secure environment' to make sure that there is no risk from the outside as teams start making that [playoff] drive. ... We did tell Coach Payton that it was something that both [chief medical officer Allen] Sills and the teams would explore.
