The news out of Tennessee today should act as an alerting to the rest of the NFL: Playing a season amidst a pandemic is not going to be simple.
Among the limitations, players are not enabled to attend indoor club with crowds of 10 or more or participate in any event or event that violates local and/or state constraints. They also are required to use face coverings while in public.
But the NFL and the NFLPA accepted an individual duty required as part of a modified CBA for 2020. It particularly prohibits gamers from participating in particular behaviors this season as part of threat mitigation.

The league can fine gamers for breaching its individual duty rules.
The Raiders already have had the league great them $250,000 and Jon Gruden $100,000 for the coachs failure to wear a face covering in a game against the Saints. They likewise supposedly are under investigation for allowing a non-credentialed group staff member into their locker room after that Monday night video game, possibly breaching NFL policy.
