The Indianapolis Colts closed their practice facility Friday after several members of their organization tested positive for COVID-19, the team said.

The team didn't provide a specific number of people who tested positive.

The Colts are in the process of confirming the test results and will work remotely.

Indianapolis is scheduled to have a home game Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals (1 p.m. ET).

The Atlanta Falcons closed their facility Thursday following a second positive test for COVID-19, the Tennessee Titans played Tuesday following a 16-day layoff because of an outbreak, and the New England Patriots have twice had their original Week 5 matchup against Denver postponed following four positive coronavirus tests by players. They're set to play Sunday.
