The 2020 N.F.L. draft will not be pushed back amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Rumors were circulating around the league moving its draft and other league events back with the virus delaying or canceling the sporting world at the time.
The original plan for the draft was to be hosted in Las Vegas, the future home of the Raiders next season. The draft will go from April 25 to April 27 but shifts to an online format that will still be televised for fans nationwide.
The decision by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to keep the draft on schedule will have lasting ramifications for each team and the prospects trying to make a name for themselves.
