The Patriots had one new positive test for the coronavirus Sunday morning, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter, and their building is now shut down while further testing is conducted.

The NFL still plans to play the Broncos-Patriots game Monday, a source told ESPN.

The Patriots had reopened their facility and held a practice Saturday after having been closed Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Quarterback Cam Newton, cornerback Stephon Gilmore and practice squad defensive tackle Bill Murray are currently on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Elsewhere, another positive test result has shown up within the Titans organization.

After two consecutive days of negative test results, a member of the Tennessee Titans' team staff tested positive for the coronavirus Sunday morning.

"This morning we learned that a staff member tested positive. We have temporarily closed our facility and are in communication with the league on the next steps," a team statement said.

The line on the Bills-Titans game has also been pulled.  It was rescheduled for Tuesday night.

The Titans have now received a total of 24 positive test results dating back to Sept. 24. Sunday's positive test result by a staff member marks the 11th time a team personnel member has done so. A total of 13 players tested positive over that span.

The Titans removed offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson and defensive back Greg Mabin from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and returned to their facility on Saturday for the first time since Sep. 29.
