Jonathan Kraft Expects Gillette Stadium to be at Full Capacity This Season

Patriots president Jonathan Kraft believes because of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, Gillette Stadium will have full fan capacity in time for the 2021 season, according to Michael Silverman of The Boston Globe.

While at one of several “life-after COVID-19” virtual panels at this year’s MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference held Thursday and Friday, Kraft explained his reasoning.

"Once vaccines have been available in a community for a long enough period of time where anyone who’s wanted one could’ve gotten it and reached two weeks past their second shot, just to take the outlying point, then I don’t know why you shouldn’t be at full capacity," he said.
