Yep, the Marlins got 11 players with it. That pretty much takes them out of the league short of having an entire farm system in place to replace those players with - which is theoretically possible with baseball, though the quality of play is likely to go down.
But with football? forget it. I don't care how much money is on the line, the NFL has literally no meaningful safeguards in place for the players. It's not a question of *if* there will be an outbreak that decimates a team, but when.
The NFL might try to start a season, but it'll get called probably 1/4 of the way into it.
