The NFL is continuing to adapt and change their COVID-19 safety protocols to better protect players, coaches and staff. On Tuesday, the NFL issued some additional rules aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19 whenever teams are together.
Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL’s chief medical officer, told NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero that the league is increasing its mask requirements for players.
Dr. Sills says the NFL sent a memo to clubs today, asking them to have players wear masks on the sideline and the locker room, and mandating masks during postgame interactions between the teams.
