Not only will 2020 NFL draft prospects not get a chance to hear their names called in person, but they have also been told to follow social-distancing rules at home.

According to Peter King of NBC Sports, 58 prospects will get in-home cameras that will focus on them when they are picked. However, they are required to have no more than six people in the picture at a time.

Because of the coronavirus pandemic, the draft will be held in a virtual format from April 23-25 instead of the scheduled location in Las Vegas.
