Teams can take the field in Phase Two. Offense and defensive players are allowed to line up across from each other, but there’s no contact allowed (as is the case throughout the offseason program).

Things get a little more serious in Phase 3. This is where 7-on-7, 7-on-9 and 11-on-11 drills are allowed per the NFL. There’s still no contact, but this is the closest thing teams will have to real football until training camp.
