Detroit Lions Place Jarrad Davis on COVID-19 Reserve List
The Detroit Lions placed linebacker Jarrad Davis on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Per the Lions organization, "The Reserve/COVID-19 list was created for a player who either tests positive for COVID-19 or who has been in close contact with an infected person or persons. Per NFL-NFLPA policy, clubs are not permitted to comment on a player’s medical status other than referring to roster status."
Is Detroit general manager Bob Quinn concerned about playing an entire season amid the global pandemic?
“Am I concerned? Obviously, 'cause this is a big unknown. But, we’ll do the best we can, and we feel like, at least for the Lions, we have a good plan in place for the facility to keep everybody safe," Quinn said during a video conference prior to the season.
Seven other members of the roster have tested positive in 2020, including tight end Isaac Nauta, cornerback Justin Coleman, wide receiver Kenny Golladay, tight end T.J. Hockenson, punter Arryn Siposs, safety Jalen Elliott and cornerback Amani Oruwariye.
