Mike Tomlin: ‘We Don’t Need Cautionary Tales’ Like Ravens’ Outbreak To Stay Safe; ‘We Live In This Every Day’

At this point in the season, I don’t know that there are any franchises who have not been touched by the coronavirus. If there are any remaining who have been able to avoid any positive player cases, then the number is in the low single digits. A large number of teams even currently have active cases—including both the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens, who are on track to play on Tuesday after their Thursday game had been postponed twice.

As we speak, the Ravens are preparing to expand their Reserve/Covid-19 List up to at least 23 total players, including 21 from the past week alone, but it is also possible that we could see some names—especially nose tackle Brandon Williams—come off the list if they were close contacts who continued to test negative.
