My concern is more about lost league revenue this year and the impact on the salary cap.

It'll be interesting to see what the NFL comes up with in order to combat their loss of a projected $3.2 billion in the 2020 season due to the absence of fans.

There have been all kinds of suggestions for teams to make up lost revenue due to the elimination of fans in stadiums, from covering seats with advertisements to ads and sponsorship on player's jerseys.

I doubt they'll be able to fully cover $100 million per team in lost revenue but they may be able to soften that hit substantially.
