Teams can start offseason programs on April 19; No word on in-person work

The NFL has informed teams when they can begin their offseason programs, but some significant details remain up in the air.

Awesome. Back to some semblance of normal. Not back all the way but this plus the announcement of the 17th week being approved today makes Loco very happy.
 
The NFLPA was pushing to get rid of otas, does anybody know if that passed? Will there be otas, will there be mini camps?

I'm still in So Cal but retiring sometime soon and relocating near Savannah, Ga.

I'll be at all the camps open to the public once I get moved out there. I might even start writing a blog of Fins stuff... I'll probably be getting a smaller RV to do it in style when I get there and plan on doing a whole bunch of DOLFAN tailgates and hanging out when I get there!

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports in-person OTAs can begin on April 19.​

"The NFL and NFLPA continue to discuss virtual vs. in-person meetings and on-field work soon thereafter," Pelissero reports. As Pelissero points out, it is possible the league and NFLPA ultimately agree to new COVID rules for the 2021 offseason, but if they don't, the CBA status quo takes the day. We saw a similar dynamic play out in Major League Baseball, where the MLBPA vetoed a later start and the calendar kicked in as normal. Although the pandemic is still roiling in many parts of the country, vaccinations and previous infections are making for fewer places for the virus to spread. The offseason program could still be altered, but it doesn't seem like there is going to be a repeat of 2020 where all in-person activity was scrapped.

I think virtual stuff could be okay for meetings and things like that, but still need some on field work

I hope there are OTAs. These young guys need as much practice time as they can get

They all need practice. Only one that doesn't need practice is Grier. He already has plans for the 2040 draft where he will be drafting 32 players in the 1st round.
