NFLPA: 21 players have tested positive for COVID-19 at training camps

Twenty-one NFL players have tested positive for COVID-19 since reporting to training camps, the NFLPA said Tuesday.

In total, 107 players have tested positive throughout the offseason. Veterans from most teams began reporting to camps Monday and Tuesday.

The NFLPA didn't identify which players tested positive.

The NFL established a reserve list for players who either test positive or come into contact with an infected player. Every team gets an unlimited number of slots on the reserve list and won't be required to disclose which players test positive.

The union announced last week that 12 rookies tested positive before reporting to camp, and they would need to register two negative tests prior to entering team facilities.
