Or Monday at the latest.Now they will be on an even shorter week for the wash,game.Moved to Tuesday

This is stupid and bordering on the ridiculous. This move was entirely made in a way so that Jackson and the others will be cleared to play. Yet if Roethlisberger or Watt get hurt in practice tomorrow it would be hey tough luck buddy the game must go on.
Real bad look for the league.
You sure Jackson will be cleared to play? If he just got diagnosed I don’t think he’ll be playing.
Not sure, but if he was diagnosed on Thursday his 5 days would be up just in time for Tuesday night.

I believe the five days rule is for those who did not actually test positive but was in close contact with someone that did. For example, this was the protocol for Big Ben.Ok. I didn’t know it was only 5 days. Assumed it was longer. Seems short.
But even at 5 wouldn’t he be out Tuesday? Assuming again he’d need to be out for the next 5 which would include Tuesday.

Since he did test positive, I believe he has a timeline of ~10 days before he could be cleared. IIRC, them postponing it isn’t so that players who tested positive can be cleared. It allows them to contact trace and isolate the team so that they can separate those with the virus from the rest, allowing the game to safely be played.

The NFL obviously needs to appoint a Stiller fan to be its next commissioner
That is correct. Five days for people who have close contact but do not test positive. Ten days for people who do test positive.
The other kick in the rear over this is that the Stillers still have to play next week on Sunday against Washington, but the Baltimore - Dallas game was moved to Monday. If you were going to move one of those games to give someone an extra day, why on earth is it the team that caused the problem in the first place rather than the team that is getting screwed over by the other team's willful disregard for the rules and protocols the league put in place?
Baltimore-Dallas was supposed to be on Thursday , so it had to be moved. Not sure how that impacted the decision.That is correct. Five days for people who have close contact but do not test positive. Ten days for people who do test positive.

I thought if you were part of the tracing it was 5 days, but a positive test by the individual is longer.Ok. I didn’t know it was only 5 days. Assumed it was longer. Seems short.

There is no way any of the Covid positive players are playing.You sure Jackson will be cleared to play? If he just got diagnosed I don’t think he’ll be playing.
It should be longer than 5 days since he tested positive, not just exposure.Not sure, but if he was diagnosed on Thursday his 5 days would be up just in time for Tuesday night.

Jackson will be eligible against the cowboys.That is correct. Five days for people who have close contact but do not test positive. Ten days for people who do test positive.

They keep it on Sunday, isn’t there a good chance someone on the field gets it from a Ravens player that they don’t know has it yet.
Yeah, I’m aware of that recurring comment by the NFL but common sense says there has to be an increased risk of transmission given the # of Ravens players testing positive or in close contact to those that did.I'm not saying it isn't possible, but so far there are no known cases of someone catching covid from an opponent in a football game.
