Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew was among five Jacksonville players to get placed on the Reserve/COVID list on Sunday. But on Tuesday, Minshew was already cleared to return to the team.
The COVID list covers both players who have tested positive for the coronavirus and those who have come into contact with a COVID-positive individual and are isolating as a precaution. Evidently, Minshew got the all clear after a few days, and he was back at Jaguars camp to address his brief absence from the team.
He made it clear that he didn’t test positive for the coronavirus in classic Minshew fashion.
Minshew said:
“Did not contract the virus. It took one look at me, ran the other way. Probably in its best interest.”
Yeah, that sounds about right for Minshew.
It’s great news that he didn’t test positive for the coronavirus after possibly coming into contact with an infected person. But let’s hope he continues to take precautions while living in a COVID hotspot.
