It really is. A lot of people were counting on those points this week. I was worried about that when they announced that Bourne was the positive test.

At what point does the nfl pull the plug or postpone these games?
Obviously Niners season has gone south, but this could have been a game with massive implications.

I would think if more positives came out then they’d have to in the AM.

It does seem like the league has taken a less aggressive stance on this stuff over the past few weeks.

They were talking about that on NFL Network today. Once the implemented the high risk protocols, the rest of the stuff got a little more loose. Also, they aren't really trying to prevent players initially catching the virus. They're simply trying to prevent the spread of it throughout the team. I've also heard them say that they have no data that suggests that the virus is transmitted on the field to the opposing team.

I remember when Kevin White was a thing in the1st round.

Hope he gets to play and makes a showing. Seemed like a decent kid.

The nfl gave teams extra benefits on holding on to more players in practice squad and so forth. That was their attempt at keeping this train moving. I think with all of what is going on with Covid, I actually think they are doing a decent job. The teams know what they signed up for.

Packers WR Allen Lazard will not be activated tonight, per source.

The #Packers are now hopeful that star RB Aaron Jones (calf) plays tonight vs #49ers, though it may end up being a limited role, sources say, which @MikeGarafolo alluded to earlier. He’ll warmup early and test it. If he’s 100% with no chance of reinjury, he plays.

If he has to be 100% with no chance of reinjury to play, why would his role be limited?

Yea that makes no sense. If prior to game time they announce he's active and playing, i'm rolling him out there. It's either that or I have to start Damien Harris.

If he's active you have to start him.

If he gets 5 targets and 50 all purpose yards... I’m not going to complain. At this point I almost want to sit him, and may do so anyways.

It’s between Jones, MGIII and Diontae. And I really want to sit Diontae.
