The Indianapolis Colts placed linebacker Zaire Franklin on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the team announced Monday.
Coming out of the bye week, the Colts might be down one of their core special teams players for the Week 15 matchup against the New England Patriots.
Franklin told reporters during training camp that he is vaccinated so this is likely due to a positive test. Because of this, if he is asymptomatic, Franklin can return after two negative tests a full day apart. It isn’t clear if he is asymptomatic.
Franklin’s 274 special teams snaps played are tied for the most on the team with fellow linebacker Matthew Adams. He also has played the thrid-most snaps at linebacker on defense (17.9%) while recording 27 tackles and an interception.
