It's a boilerplate legal document. Don't lick doorknobs even if we do clean them per guidelines, etc.

Article XIV, Section 47, Paragraph G:

Only mayonnaise will be allowed on training camp tables; salad cream, Miracle Whip, or similar preparations are forbidden.

Item c

 

“Clubs must reconfigure locker rooms to permit six (6) feet of space between each player (By using every other locker or adding additional lockers) where possible.

Each player must have individual space designated to store his belongings, without comingling, if locker space is unavailable.”

 

Notice the qualifier “where possible”. 
It seems most teams at initial camp start when there are 90 players could accommodate this by leveraging the Visitor’s locker room.

We are confident that social distancing can be an effective tool in reducing COVID risks in the NFL because we have successfully conducted a pilot program for several years in which defenders have been required to stay at least six feet away from Tom Brady.

Ouch.  Gonna be news worthy when spencer long gets moved to the visiting locker room.

Can you give us the Cliffs Notes version?

 

- each team must have a detailed plan for dealing with any covid outbreaks. 2 separate plans. 1 for when facilities first start opening and 20 or less people are there, and one for when more than 20 people are there.

 

- there will be numerous restricted areas of the facilities. They will assign employees tiers of clearance. Only tier 1+2 are allowed in the restricted areas (areas where players will be, mainly).

 

- as players and essential personnel return (coaches, etc) they will be isolated from other employees with: separate entrances, automated doors (etc) to reduce touch points.

 

-areas players use must be designated as restricted.

 

- daily screening for all essential personnel that includes testing where applicable & a questionnaire. 

 

- Then some stuff about physical distancing protocols in the lunch room, locker rooms,  weight room, around the facilities etc, stuff about all the different cleaning/sanitizing protocols, etc. There’s too much detail to cover it all.

 

- all players must wear masks while inside the facility.

 

- clubs must maintain at least a 2 week supply of n95 masks (must be nice to be able to get them so easily...), gloves, face shields, gowns, goggles.

 

-gloves and other PPE required for staff

 

- lots of hand sanitizer

 

- NFL will strictly enforce compliance with all protocols.
