Both the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers are in intensive protocol ahead of their Week 10 game this weekend.
The Bengals quietly shifted two players to the Reserve/COVID-19 list while on their bye last week. And now Monday, the Steelers announced one player had tested positive, putting their team in intensive protocol, too.
That said, Zac Taylor held a presser Monday and said he expects Bengals players to be permitted in the building on Wednesday, giving them a relatively normal week of practice, according to ESPN’s Ben Baby.
The importance of the upcoming game can’t go understated. Pittsburgh is 8-0 and seeks a key divisional and conference win while the Bengals are finally getting a look at the first Steelers game of the Joe Burrow era.
We’ll have more on this as it breaks for both teams, as there are now a lot of moving parts with players from both teams recently testing positive.
