    Don’t know if it’s players or staff. Could the Thursday game be in jeopardy? I think there is a five day quarantine, which would push it to Sunday.

    Could mean any affected players are automatically out of Thursdays game?

    Thursdays game is definitely going to be in jeopardy now. Sure, the players who are positive obviously don't play, but what about the contact tracing? There could be a dozen or more players who are unable to play on Thursday. They would be ready to go by Sunday though, assuming they don't test positive. Also, their center is shut down and who knows when it will be reopened. I'll be surprised if the game isn't moved to Sunday.

    I was really looking forward to the Thursday night game.

    Isn't this a bit more of an indictment by the Ravens though?! The NFL made it clear that the COVID 19 Protocol's will be at its maximum from Saturday until the end of the Season. That said, shouldn't there be some form of investigation by the league?!

    Have to figure this game is in question now. We could use a bye.

    No way this game is not being played Thursday, unless they don't have enough to field a team.

    Won't be Monday, because the Ravens play the following Thursday against the Cowboys. The league isn't going to give up 2 prime time games. The game will either be played Thursday or Sunday

    A player could have got it from their wife, who got it from a co-worker. Masks and social distancing are far from perfect. I'm sure the league will look into it, but considering it was just announced, I'm not surprised there's been no announcement

    :th thgoodpost: Thinking the same thing, Iwoudnt be surprised if this was some type of ploy by the Ravens to prepare more for the Steelers , by pushing the game back..... they are coming off loseing 3 of 4 since we last played them

    Once again, the Titans are involved in screwing us. I don't want to see them again this season. We need to "distance" ourselves as far from them as possible, at all costs. They have it. They gave it to the raisins during pre-game.

    There's just too little info out there right now to have any idea how it will affect Thursday night. It sure sucks though. Screw 2020.

    Doubtful that it was the Titans that caused this. Not enough time between exposure and test results.

    I actually don't think they postpone it, not the way NBC was promoting the hell out of it last night. However if you are of the tinfoil hat wearing persuasion this we be all you need to pull one on.

    I think it's pretty amazing that the NFL has remained on track, and kudos to NFL players and organizations for observing COVID protocols. No way could they have had this much success without the vast majority of them taking protocols seriously.
