All 32 NFL teams were required to submit an infectious disease emergency response to help cover their protocols to ensure players and staff are as safe as possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to ESPN reporter Jeremy Fowler, the Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the teams who the NFL passed their IDER.
On Sunday, Steelers’ rookies reported to facilities and on Tuesday, July 28 the rest of the team will join them. The NFL is going to great lengths to assure players and team employees are as safe as possible during this unusual time. There have been multiple players already test positive for COVID-19 and all parties involved in this understand by participating they are weighing the risk to the reward.
Do you agree with the Steelers and the rest of the NFL coming together during this time to bring people football and do you think enough is being done to ensure everyone’s safety? Let us know in the comments below.
