KANSAS CITY CHIEFS: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT THE TEAM'S 2020 SEASON

The University of Kansas Health System outlined everything in consultation for fans who will attend games at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Chiefs, who are only one of five teams that will have fans in their stadium to begin the season, announced that they will have intensified methods, including the cleaning and sanitization of high-touch areas before and after each game and regularly throughout the game with hospital-grade disinfectants.

All staff members who enter the building will go through a health screening, which features a questionnaire and temperature check. They are expected to routinely wash their hands with soap and water or use hand sanitizer when unavailable. Staff members must also wear masks throughout their entire shift.

The gameday experience for fans will be quite different than usual as well. Seating and high-traffic areas of the stadium have been modified to support social distancing standards, and all concessions, retail points of sale and parking tollbooths will be cashless. For the fans attending games, all bags will be prohibited inside the stadium, and everyone must wear a mask at all times except when eating or drinking.

The NFL is also providing every team a stadium-specific recording of crowd noise that must be played at a required level of 70 dB throughout every game, except during injury timeouts and quarter, halftime and commercial breaks.

A league official will be monitoring these levels on the sidelines every game. Teams that don't follow the rules will be subject to fines, suspensions or even lost draft picks.
