A day after the Thanksgiving game between the Ravens and Steelers was postponed due to a spate of positive COVID-19 results on Baltimore, the team has had another player and "a couple" of staff members test positive, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Despite the news, the status of the game, which has been rescheduled to Sunday, remains unchanged. On Wednesday, the NFL moved the game to 1:15 p.m. ET on NBC. Previously, it was slated for NBC's primetime broadcast on Thanksgiving Day.

The move came after Baltimore placed outside linebacker Pernell McPhee on the reserve/COVID-19, joining running backs Mark Ingram and J.K. Dobbins and defensive tackle Brandon Williams.
