Ryan Tannehill: Titans 'ticked off' about how they've been treated since COVID-19 outbreak
The past two weeks certainly haven't been easy for the Tennessee Titans, who were dealing with a coronavirus outbreak. Tennessee could face some sort of punishment from the NFL, but that's not what is bothering Ryan Tannehill.
The veteran quarterback revealed that the Titans aren't too happy with how they've been treated the past two weeks. Criticism from not only the fans and media, but from players and teams around the league certainly hasn't sat well with Tennessee.
Despite Tannehill's words, the team arguably deserves every bit of backlash they've received. It was reported recently that a number of members of the team worked out at a local high school in Tennessee when their practice facility was closed due to COVID-19, and that's likely only one of the number of protocols they broke in their two-week hiatus from football.
It was also reported that the NFL's investigation into the Titans has focused on linebackers coach Shane Bowen, who was the first person within the organization to test positive, and a lack of mask usage, among other things.
The Titans played their first game since Sept. 27 on Tuesday and stomped the Buffalo Bills 42-16 behind a hot Tannehill, who threw for 195 yards and three touchdowns. Tennessee will play again on Sunday against the Houston Texans, provided they continue to return negative coronavirus tests.
