MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Like a principal walking through a hushed hallway on the first day of school, Cheryl Nygaard felt the emotional surge of relief and pride last week as the Minnesota Vikings director of information technology peeked in on the video conference sessions set up for this most unusual NFL offseason.

“We had all of the players and coaches set up in their virtual classrooms, and that whole process just went off without a hitch. That's when it kind of just hit me,” Nygaard said, adding: “They were able to continue working as if we were in the office.”
