The NFL is dealing with uncertainties heading into Week 4.  The Tennessee Titans played the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.  On Tuesday, the Titan’s COVID-19 testing results revealed three new player positives and five new personnel positives.  As a result, both teams have been forced to close their facilities.  The NFL also announced this Sunday’s Titans’ game against the Steelers would be rescheduled.
