Steelers in wait-and-see mode with Friday practice

The Pittsburgh Steelers were scheduled for a Friday morning practice in preparation to take on the Baltimore Ravens. However, with recent events putting the game in jeopardy, the team has decided to hit pause on the practice until they get some answers from the NFL about when, if ever, this game is going to be played.

Thanks to the Ravens inability to adhere to COVID-19 protocols they have more than a dozen positive tests including players and staff. This has forced the game from Thursday to Sunday and now to who knows where. The NFL could come out today and saw the game goes on. Or the league could move the game to the mythical Week 18 and set in motion the backup plan for the playoffs. A final option is the Ravens would have to forfeit and the season goes forward.

We hope to have more information in the coming hours as it pertains to this situation. The longer this goes one the more it feels like the Steelers are being punished having done nothing wrong.
