In order to get people in stadiums this fall, the NFL might have fans sign liability waivers that would provide legal cover from any COVID-19-related lawsuits, according to The Athletic's Daniel Kaplan.
A source told Kaplan that one plan involves an electronic waiver to make the process easier.
However, Kaplan spoke to an attorney, Bob Hilliard, who questioned how effective the waivers would be should the worst-case scenario arise:
"Let's say a fan and his family go to a game. The team/NFL allows, by poor processes, that fan and his family to be exposed to Corona and everyone dies.
