The Titans’ game against the Bills is presently scheduled to happen on Tuesday. The Bills and Chiefs were supposed to play on Thursday Night Football next week. If this Tuesday game happens, that Thursday game will be moved to Sunday.

The Patriots are slated to play the Broncos on Monday Night Football.

Nonetheless, Maske adds that the Titans and Patriots are not expected to practice today:

Titans and Patriots are not expected to practice today. Titans' facility remains closed for an 11th straight day. Both teams are expected to be back on the practice field this weekend if there are no further positive tests. Patriots scheduled to play Monday, Titans on Tuesday.

Knock on wood that they can continue testing negative through the weekend.
