About 48 to 72 hours ago, the Buffalo Bills were probably pretty unoptimistic that their Week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans would be played. Fast forward to Tuesday, and things have done a complete 180.
According to various reports, Tuesday has seen the Bills’ upcoming opponent have a second-straight day without any new COVID-19 positive tests in their clubhouse. On Monday, the Titans had their first round of no new positive coronavirus tests in a week.
In Week 3, the Titans played the Vikings and in the ensuing days from there, things went from bad to worse. Minnesota never found any positive results via their post-Week 3 testing, but Tennessee continued to see the number of positive tests in their club increase all the way up to 18 people on Sunday.
Their Week 4 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers was long canceled by then.
With the Titans recording another day of no new positive results, there’s a chance that the team can return to their facilities on Wednesday. If that happens, the Titans could get in a “normal” work week ahead of their meeting with the Bills in Tennessee. Typically NFL teams begin their preparations for their next opponent on Wednesdays.
