A memo issued by the NFL and NFL Players Association announced that all protocols and restrictions related to COVID-19 have been lifted effective immediately. The change in protocols comes as Omicron cases decrease around the country.

  • State-by-state: each team will still be forced to comply with the regulations outlined by their home state.
  • 15 games: the number of games that we rescheduled in 2020. Only three games were rescheduled last season due to COVID outbreaks.
  • NFL Memo: “players and staff are no longer required to wear masks in club facilities”
