The NFL hasn't ruled out a post-season bubble, but mental health concerns make it unlikely

Although Major League Baseball switched its postseason to a multiple-city bubble environment in an effort to complete its Covid-19 shortened season without more delays, it seems unlikely the National Football League will copy. But the NFL doesn't plan to use alternative locations to finish its season -- although plans could change. So it installed a bubble plan for the post-season, and moved the World Series to Texas with limited fans. The NFL is keeping its options open, according to Sills, but right now the league isn't in favor of adding bubbles. The NFL would still need to seek permission from the National Football League Players Association before taking any bubble action, and that support too seems unlikely.

Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper told CNBC on Wednesday that he believes the NFL could play games this season with "some fans" in attendance. Tepper said he feels that if people are comfortable flying on an airplane right now, it would be "practical" to devise a plan for some fans to attend NFL games in the fall. "You won't be having full stadiums, but that doesn't mean you can't have some fans in the stadium either," he said. The NFL released its 2020 regular-season schedule last week, the latest indication the league that intends to play football this fall.

Its akin to a pinch hitter winning an MVP award in baseball, or a sixth man (first player off of the bench to replace a starter) in the NBA being named league MVP.
