Jets sent home after presumptive positive player test

All Jets players and coaches were sent home Friday after a “presumptive positive” player COVID-19 test, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Per ESPN’s Rich Cimini, that player has been re-tested and his latest results should be known later in the day Friday. Team personnel was already at One Jets Drive when they became aware of the news this morning. They were immediately sent home.

This development comes just a couple of days before the Jets were supposed to host the Arizona Cardinals at MetLife Stadium. Now, however, it is unclear if the Cardinals should travel east. Arizona was supposed to depart for New York on Friday, per Schefter.

Needless to say, New York’s Week 5 matchup is now in question as the team awaits further results.
