With the XFL suspending its inaugural season due to the spread of the coronavirus, the upstart league is reportedly advising players that they can now sign with NFL teams should opportunities present themselves.
According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, the XFL will complete exit physicals on Friday and players will be free to agree to new deals in other leagues. All XFL players will still be paid their base salary and receive benefits for the 2020 regular season, the league announced on Thursday.
NFL free agency is scheduled to commence on March 18.
