The pun in the headline was fully intended, and if you don’t understand it yet, just wait.
Leading up to the start of the Week 3 pre-season game between the Green Bay Packers and Oakland Raiders in Winnipeg, an issue arose as there was a massive hole on the gridiron at IG Field.
So before this game could even get off the ground (another pun), there were concerns. It was apparently too late to change the poor playing surface, so the NFL decided to completely change the rules of football instead.
Teams: This field isn't safe.
