Once again, the NFL is having to scramble to juggle its schedule after it was announced that there was another positive COVID-19 test within the Patriots organization forcing the team to close their facilities.
And now, for the second time in four days, the League will reschedule the Pats/Broncos moving it from tomorrow afternoon to next Sunday which will cause further problems for Denver who were previously set to play the Dolphins in Week Six. For the Patriots, Week Five will more than likely serve as their bye week.
Another Tennessee Titans staffer tests positive for COVID-19
In addition to the Patriots closing their facility, the Titans who are continuing to deal with their own internal outbreak of COVID-19 had to once again shut down their facility after a staffer tested positive for the virus Sunday morning.
“This morning we learned that a staff member tested positive. We have temporarily closed our facility and are in communication with the league on the next steps,” the team said in a statement.
According to ESPN, the Titans now have a total of 24 total coronavirus cases within the organization with 13 of those 24 positive cases being players. And now, once again the Titans game scheduled against the Bills which has already been moved is now in jeopardy, and you have to think at this point the NFL will have to come down on the Titans in some way or another after not following safety precautions, to begin with.
Then again though, this is essentially something the NFL asked for when it refused to at least implement the bubble for the season.
