Aaron Rodgers has joined the many NFL players to recently express concerns about playing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I think top of mind is 'are we gonna have a season?'" Rodgers said at this weekend's American Century Championship, according to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio. "I think there's a lot of things yet to be figured out. We're hopeful, we're hopeful that it's with fans and we can get all the testing procedures down the way they want it for the utmost amount of safety.

"But I think we're kind of waiting for the league and the (NFLPA) to figure some things out."

The NFL and the players' union are reportedly set to meet Monday, aiming to work out return-to-play protocols. The two sides have recently disagreed on COVID-19 guidelines ahead of the upcoming campaign.

The league recently sent teams the protocols for an eventual return to work. The preseason is likely to be shortened by two games, though the NFLPA is against staging any August contests at all.

Clubs are currently scheduled to begin training camp in late July.
