With the NFL and NFLPA agreeing on financial and safety details to prepare for a 2020 football season on Friday, the Green Bay Packers faced one final hurdle to get players into the building for training camp. As of Monday morning, however, the team has cleared that benchmark, paving the way for players to begin training camp this week.
On Monday, the players union reportedly approved the Packers’ Infections Disease Emergency Response plan, or IDER plan, according to Jim Owczarski. The IDER plan specifies the precautions that the team will take regarding the coronavirus pandemic and what actions would take place should an outbreak occur within the team.
