Sione Takitaki added to the Browns reserve/COVID-19 list

The latest addition to the growing list of Cleveland Browns on the team’s reserve/COVID-19 list is linebacker Sione Takitaki. The team added Takitaki to the lists officially on Wednesday, the same day they acknowledged a positive test for an active player.

Takitaki joins DE Myles Garrett, OL Chris Hubbard, FB Andy Janovich and DE Joe Jackson on the list. The second-year LB is coming off his best game as a pro, recording a pick-six off Eagles QB Carson Wentz in the Browns’ 22-17 win over Philadelphia.

The Browns closed down the team facility and operated remotely for the second day in a row due to Takitaki’s positive test. Jackson tested positive on Tuesday.

Because Takitaki tested positive for COVID-19, he will miss at least 10 days before he can be activated, and that’s the best-case if he is asymptomatic.
