The 2020 NFL season is upon, but in a very different way. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, most are aware of COVID-19 and just how much it has impacted our daily lives. For sports, it has been no different. Despite the MLB, NBA, NHL & even MLS starting their seasons here in America, football still faces a tall task and an uphill battle.
The Chicago Bears will be one of 32 teams tasked with balancing the delicate situation of the virus with their player’s safety. General manager Ryan Pace, head coach Matt Nagy and head athletic trainer Andre Tucker address those concerns in last week’s press conference, but only time will tell how successful they and the rest of the NFL will be in keeping their players safe and ultimately finishing the NFL season.
