Dr. Fauci Warns That Football May Not Happen This Year

Dr. Fauci says that unless football players are able to lock down in some sort of bubble-like environment similar to the NBA's proposed comeback, he's skeptical 2020 seasons will happen.

If you don't want to play the video - here's the quote:  "It would be very hard to see how football is able to be played this fall. If there is a second wave, which is certainly a possibility and which would be complicated by the predictable flu season, football may not happen this year."

The NFL still plans to open its training camps next month, and some colleges have already begun preparing for the 2020 season.

Fauci believes a second wave of positive COVID-19 tests is on the horizon. And if it happens we may have to find a way to get by without football.

With players like Ezekiel Elliot, Von Miller, and from college - Amen Ogbongbemiga all testing positive, things don't look good.
