On October 1, 1946, the New York Giants defeated the Boston Yanks 17-0 at Fenway Park to begin their season 1-0. FB Merle Hapes had a memorable return to the NFL for the first time, scoring two touchdowns in the win.
What does this peculiar tale share with tonight’s game? It was the last NFL game to be played on a Tuesday... until tonight.
After a COVID-19 outbreak turned the Titans into a tailspin, giving them an impromptu Week 4 bye and a Week 5 delay, they return to the field tonight for the first time in 16 days to face the 4-0 Buffalo Bills. The Titans are also defending their perfect record, but it will be difficult facing an improved Bills squad lead by Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs.
