The Packers will play the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons as their first two home games. You can read the full announcement below.
So, fans have now been banned from 25% of home games for the Packers. How much do we want to bet that the other six home games will follow?

The Packers are one of the most famous sports organizations in the entire world. When a team like that bans fans, then you know things are bad during the coronavirus pandemic.
They’re also just the latest NFL team to pull a move like this. Several other teams have already restricted fan access for the 2020 season.

It’s unfortunate, and I wish it wasn’t the case, but here we are. Coronavirus has decimated sports, and that’s the reality of the situation.
