The fourth week of the NFL season got underway with some competitive action even as the coronavirus shadow loomed large on some games going into Sunday.

The league postponed the game between the New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs because of Cam Newton’s reported coronavirus contraction. The game between the Tennessee Titans and Pittsburgh Steelers was postponed to Week 7 because of the Titans’ outbreak. The New Orleans Saints had a player who had a false positive coronavirus result but still managed to play.

With the Denver Broncos defeating the New York Jets on Thursday night to start things off, the week will end with a doubleheader as the Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers are also set to play Monday.

Here’s a brief look around the league in Week 4.
