The NFL is reportedly planning to use the NFL draft as a means of bolstering charitable efforts to help those impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, more details will be revealed in the coming weeks, but the NFL's primary goal is to increase COVID-19 relief funds.
Despite the fact the coronavirus outbreak has prevented NFL teams from meeting with NFL draft prospects and carrying out physicals, the NFL is still moving forward with the 2020 draft, which will take place April 23-25.
It was originally scheduled to be held in front of thousands of fans in Las Vegas, but all draft festivities in Vegas were canceled as a result of COVID-19.
