The NFL is planning to move forward with the release of its preseason and regular-season schedules next week despite widespread uncertainty because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"If we have to make adjustments, we will be prepared to do so based on the latest guidance from our medical experts and public health officials and current and future government regulations," spokesperson Brian McCarthy told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The NFL's schedule release plans are at odds with nearly every other major sport in the United States. The NBA, NHL and MLB have each indefinitely postponed their respective seasons and have given no timetable for a return.
