Jamie Gillan is now on the Cleveland Browns COVID-19 reserve list. The Browns placed their punter on the newly created list on Thursday.
While being placed on the list doesn’t necessarily mean a player tested positive for COVID-19, Gillan came out and publicly acknowledged that he did in fact test positive for the virus. He shared his situation with Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, who relayed the info via Twitter.
Gillan said he first tested positive on July 9th, over three weeks ago. The “Scottish Hammer” noted his symptoms as well. His first test with the Browns on Tuesday was negative but his second test on Wednesday resulted in a positive result. Gillan did test positive for viral antibodies on Tuesday, a strong indication he may have already had the coronavirus.
