“I think there definitely will be a football season this year,” Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said Tuesday. “The real question is will there be fans in the stadiums?”
Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross says he’s confident the NFL will play in 2020, with or without spectators.
The NFL has said it expects to play a full schedule beginning Sept. 10, but is preparing contingency plans in case the coronavirus pandemic makes venue changes or games without fans necessary. The league has kept to its off-season schedule of conducting free agency, the draft and the release of the schedule. Some teams reopened training complexes on a limited basis last week.“One thing we miss is our sports,” Ross said. “I don’t think a lot of people realize it until they no longer have it. Certainly the NFL, I think, will be ready to go. I know we’re all looking forward to it. I know I am.
