NFLPA advises players to avoid group workouts

Over the past 48 hours there have been numerous athletes across the sports landscape who have tested positive for COVID-19, and this has had a ripple effect with each league. For Major League Baseball, training facilities were shut down for deep cleaning. The NHL has had players in isolation after testing positive. And the NFL has recently had a rash of players who tested positive for the coronavirus.

While MLB, NBA and the NHL are looking to get back to game play, the NFL is in their offseason. Players are not permitted in team facilities right now, but there is nothing stopping from players getting together and training during the pandemic.
