The venue for 2022 was not announced alongside that of 2021 (Cleveland, Ohio) and 2023 (Kansas City, Missouri) in May 2019.[1]

The league subsequently awarded the 2022 draft to Las Vegas on April 23, 2020, as a make-up for the 2020 NFL Draft, which was originally scheduled to be held in that city before the coronavirus pandemic forced all team selections to take place via videotelephony.[2]
