Former Tennessee Titans employee sues, claims he was fired over positive test

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A former Tennessee Titans employee is suing the NFL franchise for firing him after he was told to quarantine for a positive COVID-19 test in violation of federal law.

Paul Miller says in the lawsuit filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Tennessee that he tested positive for COVID-19 on or around Nov. 11 and was told to quarantine. But Miller alleges he was called on or around Nov. 20, 2020, and told he was being fired.

"We are reviewing the complaint, but can't comment further on pending litigation at this time," the Titans said in a statement Friday afternoon.
