Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson—the NFL’s current MVP—has tested positive for COVID-19—and Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers has been postponed yet again. The Ravens have been racked by the coronavirus with a dozen players reportedly testing positive over the last week. As Sports Illustrated reports, the Ravens' strength and conditioning coach has been punished for failing to report symptoms and not wearing a mask, which may have contributed to the outbreak. The game against the Steelers will now played Tuesday.
We just want to contain this outbreak! Speaking from experience...you don’t want to catch covid! This virus is brutal! I pray no one else has to go thru this. This is bigger than football
