If so, this would mean the possibility he could clear step 3 today, and, if so, go on to step 4 on Wednesday (heavy activities). If he could be cleared for that on Wednesday, he could be cleared for step 5 on Thursday (full practice). (Although I don't think the Bengals have a full practice planned for Thursday).
This would be the most optimistic timetable and mean that we would not know his status until Thursday at the earliest. If he fails any step, then he starts over (from my understanding) and will not be available for the Titans game.
If he develops symptoms he doesn’t start over at step 1. He starts over at the last step he completed without symptoms. For example, if he develops symptoms in step 4, he goes back to step 3; not step 1.
He has enough time to clear the protocol if everything goes well.
