The NFL has made more stipulations on the Saints this upcoming NFL season — this time banning post-game interactions and jersey swaps.
The New Orleans Saints have built a roster that is set to be the top five favorites to win the Super Bowl in the upcoming season. Due to COVID-19, though, this season is going to look quite a bit different than the rest.
We have already discussed how stadiums are being forced to block off the first eight rows of the stadium to create extra distance between the players and coaches from the fans. Now, there are more stipulations.
The NFL has announced that all postgame interactions, including the famous jersey swaps, between players, will be forbidden in the upcoming season. An iconic moment shared by rivals at the end of the game ripped away.
NFL teams will be forbidden from postgame interactions within 6 feet of each other and jersey exchanges between players will be prohibited during the 2020 season, sources say.
