When the Covid-19 pandemic brought the sports world to a halt in March of 2020, the NFL had a built in advantage. Unlike the NBA, NHL, and MLB, the football season was months away, giving the league time to implement plans to keep the season from being derailed.
Through rigorous testing, tracking, and adjustments to the calendar, the 2020 NFL season reached its conclusion without cancelling a single game. And at the end of that road lay Super Bowl LV. The premier event on the American sports calendar every year.
Today on The Biggest Game: former Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David, Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's Chief Medical Officer, and longtime NFL executive Jeff Miller explain how the season and the biggest game took place in the midst of a global pandemic.
