The NFL is now facing their very first real possibility of a game being postponed or even cancelled. Falcons defensive back A.J. Terrell was placed on the COVID-19 list on Saturday and now the Falcons’ game against the Bears on Sunday is in danger of being altered.
Players are placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list if they have tested positive for the coronavirus or came into contact with someone who tested positive.
Atlanta’s organization will continue to conduct contact tracing and COVID-19 testing through Sunday morning. Sunday morning’s results will reportedly “guide it all.”
Sunday’s game could end up being postponed or cancelled as the league won’t take any chances of a massive outbreak.
After a meltdown last week against the Dallas Cowboys, the Falcons were looking to shake it off and hope to get a win against the Chicago Bears on Sunday.
