NFL extends virtual offseason programs until May 29

The NFL has extended its virtual offseason program through the end of the month.

The NFL has extended virtual offseason programs until May 29, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

“If a Club begins but subsequently discontinues the Virtual Period, the Club may resume its offseason workout program at a later date, either on a virtual basis or on-field if all NFL facilities have reopened,” the league said in a memo sent to teams.

All teams must have their offseason workout programs completed by June 26. If possible, the NFL will aim to start training camps in late July.

The Broncos previously started virtual meetings and workouts for veteran players and rookies joined the meeting this week. Denver kicker Brandon McManus told The Athletic’s Nicki Jhabvala that he doesn’t expect players to return to the facility until training camp.

“My guess is we don’t go in there at all until training camp,” McManus said. “I think we’ll be in there July 28.”

After the draft, Broncos GM John Elway said the league is hoping to start training camps — and the NFL season — on time.
