The Washington Redskins suspended all travel until further notice for their coaches and scouts due to concerns about coronavirus, the team announced Thursday. 

While the NFL is in the offseason, many teams use this time of year to travel to pro days as they prepare for the NFL draft. 

The Redskins join the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steelers in pulling coaches off the road for the time being. 



Washington, though, is the first team to halt all travel, including scouts. 

Due to health and travel concerns surrounding COVID-19 #Redskins have informed all coaches and scouts to suspend all travel until further notice,” owner Dan Snyder said in a statement.
