Commissioner Roger Goodell told teams that discipline could now include loss of draft picks or even forfeit of a game if violations result in the spread of the virus, adjustments to the schedule or other league impact. The new requirements include a ban on gatherings outside the club facility and implementing a video monitoring system to ensure compliance with protocols. The Steelers had their game with Tennessee postponed after the Titans coronavirus outbreak.
