So two more positive tests in Tennessee this am brings it to 18 positive tests in the past week. Next week’s Titans-Bills game now in jeopardy.

Obviously, everyone was concerned like hell Saturday once the news about Newton broke and the game was postponed.
You’d be foolish to not be a little worried at this point. It’s a fluid situation, and things literally change by the minute.

However, it sounds like everything is going to be just fine. That’s great news for the NFL and the Patriots.
Newton needs to isolate away from the rest of the team, heal up and then he can return once the virus has cleared his system.

It might have looked dicey yesterday, but everything appears like it’s going to be just fine for the Patriots. All things considered, things could have been much worse.
