Two more Titans players have tested positive for COVID-19, as Adam Schefter of ESPN.com tweets. In total, seven Titans players and six personnel members have tested positive.
On Thursday, the NFL postponed the Titans’ game against the Steelers, scheduled for Sunday. The make-up date for that game remains TBD — all we know for now is that it will not be made up during Week 4, as initially planned. The Vikings, who played the Titans on Sunday, have received zero positive tests this week. For now, their Sunday game against the Texans is set to go on as scheduled.
In the interim, the Vikings will operate under the “supplemental intensive protocols” set forth by the league. The protocols include no in-person meetings, two daily tests per person, and mandatory masks and gloves for everyone on the practice field.
“There is one simple rule to remember,” said the NFL in Thursday’s memo. “Act as if every person you come in contact with has a COVID infection and take appropriate precautions.”
At last check, no one on the Titans was seriously ill, beyond some flu-like symptoms.
