Absolutely huge. They should be forced to forfeit this week's game, next week's game and last week's game. The players who participated should be suspended for the season. If any coaches knew, they should also be tossed. It cannot get more serious right now, and the NFL has to make that extremely clear.

 

Yeah, it's not just about the Titans.  It's about if the season will be played out or not.  What could be more serious than that for the NFL?

They should get one too


But then what about the rest of the teams on the Titans schedule? So because of when they had this outbreak the Bills/Steelers get a forfeit W and the rest of the teams actually have to play the Titans? 
 

Wouldn’t it make more sense to give 2 NFC teams on the Titans schedule a forfeit W as it doesn’t have a bearing on AFC playoffs?

I don't want the free win from a forfeit, but assuming this report is accurate, I believe that's an appropriate response from the league. This type of flagrant disregard of the rules effectively puts the entire season in jeopardy, not to mention the health of other players, personnel, refs, etc.

Thinking this out, with 2 AFC teams missing games against the Titans, with playoff implications, wouldn’t it make more sense for the NFL to give a forfeit win to an NFC team? How is it fair to the rest of the AFC to give the Bills/Steelers a W and make the rest of the teams play the Titans?

YOLO is this official from the League??

 

I ain't YOLO, but what I am getting from this is a group of students spotted adult football players they identify as Titans practicing on the football field of a private school.

They took photos from too far of a distance to ID the players.

 

This has been reported on the website of a former writer for the Tennessean newspaper, for ESPN, and a host at a Nashville radio station: Paul Kuharsky

Absent someone ratting or better pics, I'm gonna guess the NFL will investigate and decide it can not conclusively prove this, or that it was the independent action of the players and those players should be fined but the team not disciplined.

 

I don't think the NFL has made any announcement yet.
