Another Tennessee Titans player and another staff member have tested positive for the coronavirus, while the rest of the NFL returned no new positives on Sunday, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press.
The results from around the rest of the league come after the NFL postponed the Patriots' game at Kansas City from Sunday to either Monday or Tuesday. New England starting quarterback Cam Newton and Chiefs practice squad quarterback Jordan Ta'amu were both added to the COVID-19 reserve list Saturday.
On Monday, the league will hold a conference call with all 32 teams to reinforce the necessity of following protocols -- including updates made this week after the outbreak involving the Titans -- provide updates on testing and contact tracing and to share best practices. Wednesday now is the earliest they can get back in their facility, which is the day Tennessee would start practicing to prepare to host Buffalo on Oct. 11.
After the NFL postponed the Titans' game set for Sunday against Pittsburgh, the league rescheduled it for Week 7 on Oct. 25 during Tennessee's bye. The league also moved Baltimore's bye to Week 7, so the Ravens now can play Pittsburgh on Nov. 1.
