Titans tell employees to work from home if possible amid COVID-19 fears

The Tennessee Titans are taking more precautions with their employees in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.

According to Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky, the team has instructed employees to work from home if possible, although offices have not been closed.

The #Titans have not closed down their offices. But they have asked those who can work from home to do so.

This comes on the heels of the Titans also pulling their scouts and coaches off the road amid mounting fears about the spread of COVID-19.

#Titans will pull scouts and coaches off the road through next week, and will continue to monitor the situation beyond that.

Multiple NFL teams have taken similar precautions, so the Titans are just following suit with their own employees. It’s the right approach, as there’s no such thing as being too careful in this situation.

The restrictions set forth by the Titans and other NFL teams on their staff would impact free-agent meetings and pre-draft visits.

As it stands now, the start of the legal tampering period and free agency has not been pushed back yet, but there’s a good chance that could happen also.
