The New York Jets and the Eastern College Athletic Conference have announced the launch of the largest collegiate women's flag football league in the U.S., set to start in February.

Daniel Carlson’s 48-yard field goal as time expired sent the Las Vegas Raiders to a 16-14 win over the COVID-19-depleted Cleveland Browns in a game pushed back two days by the NFL amid an uptick of virus cases across the league.

Commissioner Roger Goodell says the league has found new avenues of communication that will be common in future seasons. “Virtual meetings have now become standard in the NFL; we are not going to have as much (in-person) meetings when we get back,” Goodell said Wednesday at the NFL Women's Careers in Football Forum. “The draft is an example” of the effectiveness of the technology the NFL used, Goodell noted. “One of the things we talked about throughout the last year was how do we learn from what we are going through?” Goodell said. It also gave us opportunities to find new ways of doing things that actually are quite popular.”Ad___More AP NFL coverage: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL
