NFL teams can begin reopening their facilities on Tuesday if state and local governments will allow it.
In a memo sent to the 32 teams Friday by Commissioner Roger Goodell and obtained by The Associated Press, he stressed the clubs must be in compliance with any additional public health requirements in their jurisdiction.
He also said they must have implemented the protocols that were developed by league medical officer Dr. Allen Sills and distributed to all clubs on May 6.
Facilities have been closed since late March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Each team was required to submit a plan to the league for reopening its training/practice facility this week.
Clubs unable to meet these criteria on May 19 may reopen their facilities on the earliest date thereafter on which they are able to meet the criteria, Goodell added
