Dr. Anthony Fauci says football is a "perfect set up" for the spread of the coronavirus.
In an interview with NBC Sports, the nation's leading infectious disease expert added that constant hitting in the sport will allow the virus to be transmitted rapidly.
Although he acknowledged testing players every day is unrealistic, Fauci pushed for testing at least twice per week when the NFL resumes.
The White House task force member also said "the virus will make the decision" of when the league continues with its scheduled games this fall.
