The National Football League has less than three weeks to finishing ironing out the details for a safe return to football before players report to training camps on July 28. Rookies and other select players will be allowed to arrive even earlier.
A number of details have already been decided upon and agreed to between the NFL and the players’ union including the decision to close camps to fans this season.
Most teams around the league, including the Seahawks, normally open up a number of practices to the public throughout the summer. But with the coronavirus spreading rampantly around the country, protecting players, staff, media and fans have become top priorities.
There is some good news, however, and the 12s might just get a couple of chances to watch their favorite team in action after all. Clubs may be allowed to have up to two fan events at stadiums throughout the preseason with strict protocols in place, according to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport.
The Seahawks have yet to announce any plans for events in the works but did confirm a refund policy for season ticket holders via an email on Thursday.
