The City of Green Bay wanted to host the 2022 NFL Draft. However, the NFL Commissioner has given it to the city which was set to host Thursday night’s draft before coronavirus struck the world.
Commissioner Goodell, while accidentally saying the 2020 NFL Draft in his quote, announced that the new home of the Raiders will host the draft in one of two years the Packers were bidding for:

Green Bay and the area’s convention and visitor’s bureau were working on bringing that draft, or 2024, to Lambeau Field.
While no decision has been made regarding the location of the 2022 & 2024 NFL Drafts, the #Packers remain committed to bringing the event to the Greater Green Bay area. ???? https://t.co/VGgDhHnIqP
