This space is normally occupied for the biggest story or game from the weekend's slate. That won't change this week. The NFL dealt with its first batch of go-with-the-flow, hectic adjustments to their regular season schedule due to COVID-19 this week. The circumventing seems to have worked thus far, but it would be a miracle … Continue reading NFL Tuesday Morning Madness Week 4: COVID-19 issues first disruption
