Another day brings another positive COVID-19 test in Tennessee. The latest result Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills can be played.
¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøNetwork's Tom Pelissero reported that another Titans player tested positive during Wednesday's round of testing, per a source informed of the situation.
Pelissero added that the inconclusive test from the previous day also came back positive, per a source.
Tennessee's facility remains closed.
¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøNetwork Insider Ian Rapoport reported the number is now 21 members of Titans organization -- 12 players, nine personnel -- to test positive for the novel coronavirus.
The Titans later announced Thursday that tight end MyCole Pruitt and practice squad defensive back Breon Borders had been added to the reserve/COVID-19 list.
With the positive tests trickling in one or two by day, Tennessee hasn't been in their facility since the Week 3 game against the Minnesota Vikings. The ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøpostponed the Titans-Steelers game scheduled for last Sunday until Week 7.
With the Titans' bye burned last week and the Bills set to play next Thursday night, the league is in a tough spot trying to figure out how to play the game, given the positive test results continue.
The league is reviewing and trying to concoct a pathway to play the game, but beyond adding an additional week at the end of the year, the options are thin.
Meanwhile, the ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøand the ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøPlayers Association are looking into multiple unauthorized workouts involving Titans players since their facility closed on Sept. 29, ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøNetwork's Tom Pelissero reported Thursday.
The ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøsent a memo to the teams this week, noting that violations of the COVID-19 protocol could result in losing draft picks and potential forfeitures of games. While the league has tried to avoid the forfeit route thus far, it's possible it becomes the only option.
