NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The NFL has postponed the Denver-New England game indefinitely due to another positive coronavirus test with the Patriots.

That game, originally scheduled for Sunday, had been moved to Monday night.

A person familiar with the situation says the Patriots have closed their facility again after the positive test result.

“This decision was made to ensure the health and safety of players, coaches and game day personnel and in consultation with medical experts,” wrote the NFL in a statement.

Meanwhile, the Tennessee Titans announced they closed their facility Sunday morning after a staff member tested positive.

These latest results endanger the Titans’ game with Buffalo set for Tuesday night.

A source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that there were no other positive test with any other team Sunday morning.
