Giants’ Dave DeGuglielmo tests positive for COVID-19

The New York Giants announced on Friday that offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo has tested positive for COVID-19 and was immediately isolated.

In addition to DeGuglielmo, two potential close contacts were also isolated, although the Giants did not disclose if they were assistant coaches or players.

“The Giants have been informed that offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo has tested positive for COVID-19,” the team said in a statement. “He was immediately isolated, as were two potential close contacts, and we are currently working with the league’s chief medical officer. Quest Diagnostics Training Center remains open, and the team is following its normal practice and meeting schedule today.”

DeGuglielmo will not be with the Giants on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys as a result of the positive test. He will likely be replaced by Ben Wilkerson, the team’s assistant offensive line coach.

Head coach Joe Judge will meet with reporters at 11:25 a.m. ET. Practice remains on schedule for 11:50 a.m. ET.
