The NFL has postponed Sunday's game between the Tennessee Titans and visiting Pittsburgh Steelers after some players and staff from the Nashville-based team tested positive for Covid-19.

The NFL has since shut down the Titans team facility.

According to ESPN, which cited unnamed sources, playing the game on Monday is among the options being considered to reschedule the contest.

Meanwhile, the Vikings' facility was also closed on Tuesday and Wednesday and it is unclear whether their scheduled game with the Houston Texans will take place on Sunday.
