League in considerable Covid turmoil

The NFL seemed to be springing more leaks than it has fingers on Saturday, as Covid-19 ran roughshod over several rosters. The Ravens-Steelers game postponed from Thursday to Sunday to Tuesday remains in some peril, but for now the strangest situation is in Denver, where every quarterback on the Broncos’ roster is either infected or ineligible to play Sunday by way of close contact with the infected. For now the game vs. New Orleans is going forward anyway, with one-time Wake Forest QB KENDALL HINTON — till now a wide receiver on Denver’s practice squad — reportedly in line to handle the majority of snaps behind center. Check Hinton’s eligibility in your league, as you may be able to start the emergency QB in a WR slot, and strap in for a bumpy ride.
