53bs5r9G8hsR
Mike Florio and Charean Williams discuss the Titans and Vikings suspending in-person activities after positive COVID-19 tests for Tennessee and how it serves as a reminder for teams about the danger of the virus.

Steelers receiver Diontae Johnson remains in concussion protocol, coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday.

Johnson played 19 of 80 offensive snaps against the Texans before leaving with his head injury.

Johnson, 24, ranks second on the team with 14 catches for 149 yards and a touchdown.

Fullback Derek Watt has a hamstring injury and not likely to play Sunday. He has played 21 offensive snaps and 49 on special teams this season.

Linebacker Marcus Allen has a better chance than Watt to play, per Teresa Varley of the team website, but still doubtful with plantar fasciitis.

Allen has played 33 special teams snaps this season.
