Tonight’s Titans-Bills game will go on as (re-)scheduled. Monday’s round of COVID-19 testing yielded no new positives, clearing the way for their Tuesday Night Football matchup. Ditto for the Chiefs and Patriots (Twitter links via NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero).
Over the weekend, one Titans staffer tested positive for the coronavirus, though that person had not been at the team facility for roughly two weeks. Since the staffer has not been in contact with other players, coaches, or executives, the Titans still had the green light to play, pending Monday’s test results. The Titans also got some more good news on Tuesday morning – wide receiver A.J. Brown is good to go after healing up from his bone bruise, per Paul Kuharsky (on Twitter).
The Patriots were asked to nix in-person activities after their flare-up, but they should be able to get back to the practice field on Wednesday. There’s no official word yet, but there’s hope that the Patriots will be able to face the Broncos on Sunday. The two teams were originally scheduled to play last Sunday, then slated for Monday night, before being bumped to Week 6.
Interesting how the story broke with the newly infected person being a coach. But now with the NFL having their backs against the wall and looking squarely at having to add an 18th week the infected person has now been identified as a staffer. And of course a staffer would have no contact with anyone in the actual football operations. This is a joke. The narrative has been changed to meet their needs. Players association needs to get involved to protect the players.
Yes, your post is a joke. Guessing you think the moon landing never happened as well?
Haworth you’re analogy makes no sense. Wow, how old are you? 6, 7? OMG pick up a book and read a little before you try to make your next argument.
Players association already got the players guaranteed pay even if a game is cancelled. NFL owners shouldn’t make anymore concessions to them.
Guaranteed pay being a concession is a joke. Players are always asked to assume the greatest personal risk in the NFL, and this season they’re asked to assume even more. The owners are only asked to take on financial risk, and as soon as that seems like an actual possibility, they yank on the purse strings.
NFL and NFLPA are on the Titans like white on rice. Keep the conspiracy theories for the elections.
