The NFL postponed Sunday’s Pittsburgh at Tennessee game until later in the season after one additional Titans player and one personnel member tested positive for COVID-19. With the two new cases, the Titans’ total is now 11: five players and six other organization members.
The announcement today came one day after the league said it hoped to play the game on Monday or Tuesday. Now the NFL has to figure out how to reschedule the game.
The simplest scenario for rescheduling is Week 7 on October 25. That’s the Titans’ bye week. Pittsburgh is scheduled to play at Baltimore that week, but both the Steelers and Ravens have byes in Week 8 allowing the NFL to make a change affecting only one other team.
