Thursday night, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Baltimore Ravens would be closing their facility until at least Monday. This caused a panic among the players and fanbase of the Steelers.
But that was apparently a little bit of bad reporting from Schefter. The Ravens will be shutting down their facility according to Ravens head coach, John Harbaugh, but that's something the Ravens decided to do, not the NFL.
Right now the latest report comes from Jeremy Fowler who used to be the Steelers beat man for ESPN. He's now ESPN's Senior NFL Writer.
He tweeted this out earlier this morning.
There has been no change in the status of Ravens-Steelers game as of this AM and league continues to monitor. NFL determining whether game medically safe after five straight days of positive tests in Baltimore, and whether that could subside over weekend.

There hasn't been any word out yet in regards to more Ravens testing positive today. We do know that if the Ravens and Steelers play on Sunday, that the Ravens will be without starting QB Lamar Jackson, RB JK Dobbins, RB Mark Ingram, and DL Calais Campbell, among others.
Currently the team is in a holding pattern until they hear more from the NFL. The Steelers have pushed back practice today while they wait on more information.
The Steelers, like most of us, are waiting to see what happens with the Ravens. Per team spokesman Burt Lauten, the team is waiting to practice today until they hear more clarification from the League.
