While the show will continue the league's tradition of handing out awards such as MVP, Coach of the Year, Comeback Player of the Year and many others, this year's event will be held virtually as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Additionally, the Pro Football Hall of Fame will announce its 2021 class, which will join the 2020 class in being inducted into Canton later this year.
