The Atlanta Falcons shut down their facilities Thursday morning with positive COVID-19 tests.

The team placed DT Marlon Davidson on the list on Tuesday, and CB A.J. Terrell was placed on the list in September.

According to NFL Network, the team will look to resume practice on Friday.

Their most recently positive test came from an assistant coach, but Atlanta should proceed with caution.

Fantasy owners of Sunday’s matchup between the Falcons and Vikings should be aware in case the matchup is cancelled or postponed by the league.
