Rams open season on Sept. 26 at Monmouth

Bronx, N.Y. – Due to Patriot League COVID-19 guidelines, Fordham University has canceled the first three scheduled football games of the 2020 season and is now slated to open the season on Saturday, September 26, at Monmouth University.
 
The canceled games are home contests with Stony Brook on August 29 and Bryant on September 5, and a game at Hawaii on September 12. The Rams are looking to reschedule these games in the future and add a game on their bye week on October 24.
 
"I'm disappointed for our student-athletes, coaches, staff, and fans that we had to cancel the first three games of the season, but the health and wellbeing of our student-athletes is our number one priority," said Fordham interim director of athletics Ed Kull. When we return to campus we will follow all guidelines and precautions mandated by the NCAA, the Patriot League, and the University to protect all involved in our program and department. "
 
"We will continue to monitor the evolving situation and work closely with the University Reopening Group, Fordham Athletics Pandemic Committee and the Patriot League to aid in the modification of our strategic plan to allow our student athletes to come back to campus in the safest way"
 
The Patriot League Council of Presidents announced the following principles, which will guide the development of a Patriot League Fall 2020 Athletics Plan that makes the health and safety of our communities its highest priority:
  • Student-athletes will return to campus at the same time as other students;
  • Patriot League competition will begin at the end of September, with the expectation that League play will be completed prior to Thanksgiving;
  • Non-League competition will not begin prior to Friday, Sept. 4;
  • Patriot League member institutions will confirm that non-League competitors are following comparable health and safety protocols in advance of any contest; and,
  • No Patriot League teams will fly to competitions and, with rare exceptions, regular-season competition will exclude overnight travel.
Fordham football student-athletes are slated to return to campus on August 17 to begin the 2020 fall camp.
