Pittsburgh Steelers updated 2020 schedule due to Ravens COVID-19 outbreak
The Baltimore Ravens, unhappy being forced to play on Tuesday without 20 players after violating COVID-19 protocols, voiced that they were going to strike. In turn, the NFL pushed the game back (again), another 24 hours to Wednesday.
For now, the Steelers-Ravens game will be played Wednesday, Dec. 2 at 3:40 p.m. eastern, as to not interfere with NBC’s broadcast of the 88th Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting ceremony.

The move to Wednesday started a domino effect on the Steelers schedule. Initially, Pittsburgh was to play the Washington Football Team Sunday, Dec. 6. That has now been moved to Monday, Dec. 7 at 5 p.m. eastern.
Steelers-Ravens: Wednesday, Dec. 2 @ 3:40 p.m. eastern
Steelers-Washington: Monday, Dec. 7 @ at 5 p.m. eastern
