The NFL league year is slated to begin on Thursday at 4 p.m. ET, and that apparently won't change despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

ESPN's Adam Schefter dropped a Sunday report that stated people inside the NFL believe proceedings will go on as scheduled.

"Multiple people across the league now are anticipating that the start of the league year will not be moved and it will start on time, per sources. There still are ongoing conversations, and it still could change, but there is a different tone from teams as if it is happening now.
