The Cleveland Browns re-opened their facility after zero high-risk close contacts were identified from a positive COVID-19 test result earlier Friday.

Cleveland also placed offensive lineman Chris Hubbard on the COVID-19 list.

The Browns previously had a staff member test positive for the virus last Sunday during its bye week.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the positive result would have no impact on Sunday's game between the Browns and Texans, according to Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle.
