The NFL is ordering a shutdown of all team facilities to slow the spread of COVID-19.
A memo from commissioner Roger Goodell says team facilities will be closed to in-person activities today and tomorrow in a bid to slow the spread of the virus among players and staffers.
The NFL said it was taking the step partly because it’s come to their attention that a number of players and staffers celebrated Thanksgiving with out-of-town guests.
Teams playing today and Tuesday are exempt from the order.
