The NFL has once again extended its virtual offseason. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the league extended it to June 26 and stated there can be no in-person minicamps this month.
Of course, teams are not required to continue to hold meetings until the end of the month and many will wrap up this week or soon. That might include the Arizona Cardinals.
Head coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters this week in a video conference that coaches are running out of things to cover without being able to practice on the field. He has some situational things to cover but the Cardinals are likely to wrap things up.
In normal years when they have been able to hold OTAs and minicamp as always, this week would have been the final week of their offseason program. They held their mandatory minicamp June 11-13 last year before breaking until training camp.
The league has not announced how training camp will work or when it will begin, other than teams must stay at their home facilities or stadiums for camp.
Under the new CBA, training camp for almost everyone is supposed to start July 28.
