BALTIMORE — A Ravens player has tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Thursday.
The player, whom the team did not identify, immediately began to self-quarantine. Under NFL protocols, he must isolate for no fewer than five days, which means he would miss Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.
The Ravens, who have re-entered the NFL's intensive protocol, said there were no high-risk close contacts with teammates or staff members. They learned of the positive test Thursday morning.
"We will continue to work closely with the NFL, our team doctors and trainers and will follow their guidance," the team said in a statement.
The positive test comes more than a week after All-Pro cornerback Marlon Humphrey tested positive for COVID-19. Seven Ravens teammates were sidelined for several days of practice last week because of high-risk exposure.
