The Chargers, along with the Rams, have announced that they will begin the 2020 regular season without fans in attendance due to the coronavirus concerns.
“After careful consideration and discussion with state and local health officials, the Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Rams and SoFi Stadium have announced that Rams and Chargers games will be held without fans in attendance until further notice,” the Chargers and Rams said in a joint statement.
Both teams are set to embark on their first season at SoFi Stadium, the $5 billion stadium, in Inglewood, CA.
It remains to be seen if any fans will be allowed at all during the upcoming season. If cases drop in Southern California throughout the year, it’s possible that they will allow fans to attend games in a limited capacity.
The Chargers’ first home game is scheduled for Sept. 20 against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2.
