Falcons season ticket holder diagnosed with coronavirus: ‘I don’t plan on setting foot in the Benz this season’

News broke last week about the NFL’s plan for dealing with the coronavirus in the 2020 season. The plan is instead of having a plan, they will rely on local guidelines to determine how many fans can be at games and what precautions to follow. It is a bold move to follow the decisions that have caused spikes across half the country in the last few weeks, but the NFL clearly wants to limit their losses in ticket sales as opposed to doing their best to keep both players and fans safe.

As we know, the NFL pulls in $3 billion per year based on fan attendance.
