The 2020 NFL Draft is set to take place in Las Vegas in late April – for now, anyway.


Speculation about the NFL Draft’s status has been rampant ever since sports leagues across the country have shut down due to nationwide health concerns. Perhaps the NFL Draft will be next to delay its start date.

A rumor surfaced on Twitter over the weekend that the NFL Draft was being postponed until at least late May. The rumor suggested it also would not be happening in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas NFL reporter Vincent Bonsignore has shot that rumor down, though. He says it is not true as of Sunday.


“For the record, various NFL sources I’ve talked to have completely shot this down. And NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy officially said this is false,” he reports.

Wait, is this article suggesting misinformation gets spread on Twitter?

Who? The Spun?? Andy Slater is a far more reputable source. Also, "thespun" article is 3 hours old.

I hope this is true. We're still gonna be on self-lockdown over here in my household, so I could selfishly use the 3 days of obsessive TV/internet action without boredom.

Just do it by phone/video chat.

Since he closed his thread to comments:

NFL Draft won't be postponed, but public events in Las Vegas canceled

The Las Vegas strip was expected to host the NFL Draft for the first time ever, next to Bellagio Hotel and Casino.

Debunked by NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy.

What would moving it and postponing it now accomplish?

Let's wait for "official" word.
