The official NFL schedules for the 2020 season were released Thursday night and social media was buzzing with excitement about sports once more. Over the past few years, teams have utilized the release as a way to hype fans up in a fun and creative way for what lies ahead.
As many know, this year has been like no other, given everything going on with COVID-19 and social distancing. One thing that stood out is the amount of teams that used the platform as an opportunity to share their appreciation for all of the front line workers who are devoting their time and effort through the unknown.
This is bigger than a game and while teams are rivals on the field, nothing is more important than coming together for the bigger picture.
While videos are a simple gesture, there are power in numbers and continuing to spread the word — and kindness — is important now more than ever.
Watching these moments one after another will surely bring a sense of hope moving forward.
