The Memphis Tigers' game against the Houston Cougars on Sept. 18 is reportedly in danger of being postponed or canceled because of a COVID-19 outbreak within the Memphis football program.
According to Evan Barnes and Mark Giannotto of the Commercial Appeal, an anonymous source said at least 20 people within the Tigers program have tested positive for the coronavirus, while at least 20 more people are in quarantine because of contact tracing.
The source noted that most of those who have tested positive for COVID-19 or are in quarantine are defensive players.
Memphis began its season last Saturday with a 37-24 home win over Arkansas State.
