Commissioner Roger Goodell said the NFL will confer with the players union after the Super Bowl to discuss what measures might make sense keeping once this crisis subsides. Changes worthy of further consideration include aspects of the virtual NFL draft and offseason, a prolonged training camp acclamation period, expanded practice squads, and unlimited callbacks from injured reserve. “Our experience with the offseason training and doing that virtually, I think our clubs got comfortable with a lot of that,” Goodell said. He mentioned the virtual offseason, slow ramp-up to training camp contact and roster flexibility. Even if teams return to some form of in-person offseason training, there’s no going back completely to how things were before the world was rocked by Covid-19.
