Summary
After months of limited information regarding the NFL's plans to address COVID-19 concerns, the last couple of days have been a whirlwind. Jonathan Jones joins Will Brinson to break it all down from the #WeWantToPlay hashtag that circulated Sunday to the testing agreed upon on Monday. Was the coordinated effort really necessary or was the league close to a solution all along? Will and JJ discuss testing, the elimination of the preseason and teams that will be best prepared heading into the season. They also focus on the competitive balance this season and how that could be easily impacted if a minor detail goes wrong. What will football media coverage look like in 2020? That's just one of the many questions that remains unanswered as we enter an unprecedented year.
