I don’t think the Final Jeopardy panels extend above a person’s face, and they also aren’t physically between the people’s bodies - they just block the view of the writing area.
Brig Bother:
There are fairly cheap workarounds for that, I suspect.
Fedya:
It's all the latter-day equivalent of TSA security theater anyway.
Jeremy Nelson:
Read an interview with Vanna that says that Wheel is renovating the contestant area to account for social distancing. I would guess it’s got to include glass dividers, right? Cause if they don’t build a bigger wheel to increase the amount of space on the contestant rail, six feet would put Pat almost directly across from the blue player.

Having the contestants stand at 90° intervals around the wheel is certainly possible. Pat doesn't have to stand at the wheel.
