The NFL announced its 2020 schedule Thursday night, anticipating it will play the season in the normal time frame despite the pandemic. However, Commissioner Roger Goodell told teams adjustments will be made if necessary.

The season will open on Thursday, September 10, with the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Houston Texans. An opening weekend highlight will be Tom Brady’s new team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, playing the New Orleans Saints, led by their star quarterback Drew Brees, on September 13.

Raven's Thoms Threatened With Gun

Texas police allege that the wife of Baltimore Ravens safety Earl Thomas threatened him with a gun, pointing a loaded weapon at his head after she found him in bed with another woman last month. A police affidavit says Nina Thomas had taken the magazine out of the gun and disengaged the safety, but was “unaware the gun had a round in the chamber.” Earl Thomas eventually wrestled the gun away. Nina Thomas was arrested.
