FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The New England Patriots had no new positive coronavirus test results from the latest round on Sunday, a source told ESPN.

This comes one day after a positive test led the NFL to postpone the Week 5 game between the Patriots and Denver Broncos that was scheduled for Monday. The postponement was part of a significant revamping of the NFL schedule that affected eight teams.

The Patriots will now host the Broncos on Sunday, Oct. 18, at 1 p.m. ET.

Quarterback Cam Newton, cornerback Stephon Gilmore and practice-squad defensive tackle Bill Murray currently remain on the COVID-19 reserve list, with the fourth individual who tested positive Saturday still to be added.

Patriots players are scheduled to be off for at least the next two days.
