The New England Patriots went back to work Saturday, one day after a fifth player on the team tested positive for COVID-19 and one day before their twice-postponed game against the Denver Broncos.
A Patriots spokesman said the team would proceed with its walkthrough, but all meetings would be virtual. The game against the Broncos, originally scheduled for Oct. 11 and then pushed back one day, was rescheduled for Sunday at 1 p.m. after a fourth positive test.
The Patriots canceled practice Friday and later placed center James Ferentz on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Elsewhere, the Jacksonville Jaguars said Saturday that a practice squad player tested positive for the coronavirus.
