Ravens have more positive COVID-19 tests Thursday

For the fourth-consecutive day, the Baltimore Ravens have had positive COVID-19 tests, though it’s unclear exactly how many right now. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, a coach tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday. However, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said there was at least one player and several staff members who tested positive Thursday.

This is a continuation of the outbreak that has had the Ravens place nine players on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Baltimore has also seen their Week 12 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers postponed from Thanksgiving night until Sunday afternoon. Under the NFL’s protocols, any players that test positive for the coronavirus will have to miss a minimum of 10 days while those labeled as “close contact” have a minimum of a five-day wait until they can return.

The Ravens have disciplined a strength and conditioning coach for conduct related to the outbreak that included not wearing a mask or the tracker used for contact tracing.
