NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced on Monday that there will be no preseason NFL games.
The new mandate comes as every aspect of the sporting world has been affected by the coronavirus.
Goodell wrote in his statement; "The NFL in 2020 will not look like other years".
He went on to say. "Players and coaches will be tested for the virus regularly, including every day for a while".
According to CNN, sports have resumed in other parts of the world where coronavirus has been more successfully contained.
The U.S. is by far the world leader in coronavirus cases with over 4 million cases reported.
