Vikings second-year linebacker Cameron Smith had quite the health scare.
After having a false-positive for COVID-19, it was discovered that Smith had an enlarged heart and would need to undergo surgery.
The surgery went well and Smith is recovering, per Vikings coach Mike Zimmer.
“He talked before he left about trying to help out in any way possible: coming to meetings, he’ll draw cards, help with the scout teams, anything,” Zimmer said via ESPN. “We’re hopeful he’s able to come back and play football, but more importantly, he looks like he’s going to be great in health.”
Smith will surely miss the 2020 season, but he has his sights set on a return for the 2021 season.
