Despite the coronavirus pandemic altering much of the sports world, the NFL has largely continued in its operation, going forward with free agency and the NFL draft. The upcoming draft, held April 23-25, will be conducted virtually, however, as NFL facilities remain closed with few exceptions. 

Few cases throughout the sport have been officially reported. Saints head coach Sean Payton announced in mid-March that he had tested positive for COVID-19. Former Saints kicker Tom Dempsey also died at age 73 after contracting the virus.

As of Wednesday afternoon, there are more than 1.9 million confirmed cases of the coronavirus worldwide, causing at least 127,000 deaths. There are more than 600,000 confirmed cases in the United States.
