NFL quarterback warns that the 2020 season 'will not be recognizable'

Despite surging cases of the coronavirus across several states, the NFL is determined to carry on with the 2020 season — and the league hasn’t even ruled out fans being in attendance yet.

But we’re already seeing some major changes to the offseason schedule, and according to career backup NFL quarterback Chase Daniel — who makes more than Cam Newton and Jameis Winston combined — fans should prepare to see some significant changes to the regular season.

On Wednesday, USA TODAY Sports reported that the NFL will scrap Week 1 and Week 4 of the preseason, meaning that the NFL will have two preseason games. The move, which is expected to be announced Thursday, was done to limit the amount of travel and contact with other teams during a pandemic.

Yet, Daniel warned that fans should expect a much different regular season.

The Lions backup tweeted that more changes were coming and that the 2020 NFL “season will not be recognizable that’s for sure.”

While nothing has been announced, it shouldn’t be a surprise that the NFL is planning on major changes this season. Leagues across the world have either gone into bubble cities or hosted closed-door restarts.

And even with the benefit of months of preparation, the NFL season will look different in 2020. Nobody should expect a typical season for any sport until the pandemic ends.
