He’s just the latest player to test positive in the league as the NFL has a major COVID-19 problem on its hands.
The NFL season is on the brink as the league has had more than 75 cases since Monday.

It’s truly amazing how quickly things have fallen apart for the NFL. Just a few weeks ago, there were virtually no issues.
Browns’ WR Jarvis Landry and G Wyatt Teller tested positive are being placed on the Reserve/COVID list, sources tell @ByKimberleyA and me.

Now, it’s the middle of December and I can barely keep up with how fast players are testing positive? What the hell is going on?

I don’t know what the solution is to this situation, but I know Roger Goodell needs to figure it out sooner than later. If he doesn’t, we could start seeing games get postponed, and that’s the last thing anyone wants.
I’m told #Rams WR Odell Beckham Jr. has tested positive for COVID19, per league source.
