Watch: Alterations being made to Lions facility for reopening

Neither coaches nor players are allowed in the Detroit Lions Allen Park training facility at this stage but the organization is updating and preparing their buildings for fall football in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

On Wednesday, the Lions began introducing key staff members back into the facility and Kevin Anderson, the Lions Chief of Staff, explained that the Lions organization has developed two teams to execute the precautionary actions the team is making.

The “infectious response team” is in charge of medical decisions and screening protocols, while the “return to work committee” is in charge of building upgrades to maintain a safe environment.

In addition to the video below, Anderson went into more detail on the physical changes being made to the building and some of the challenges that are still in front of them to fully reopen the building, in an interview with Tim Twentyman, the Lions in-house senior writer.

You can watch the entire 2-minute video in the clip below:
