Ravens back in intensive protocol after player tests positive
The Baltimore Ravens are again in the NFL's intensive COVID-19 protocol after a player tested positive Thursday morning, the team announced.
"There were no high-risk contacts, and no other player or staff member is required to isolate," the Ravens said in a statement. "We will continue to work closely with the NFL, our team doctors, and trainers, and will follow their guidance."
Baltimore was in the protocol following cornerback Marlon Humphrey's positive test on Nov. 2, a day after the club lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The veteran missed one game and the Ravens placed a host of fellow defenders on the reserve list after doing contact tracing.
Humphrey was cleared to return for Week 10 on Wednesday, and he's expected to play Sunday night against the New England Patriots.
The Ravens are 6-2 and currently sit in one of the AFC's wild-card spots.
