The Kansas City Chiefs placed three offensive tackles on the COVID-19 list on Monday.

Starting tackles Eric Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz, as well as Martinas Rankin, landed on the reserve list, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Both Fisher and Schwartz were deemed to be in close contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19 but haven't tested positive themselves, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.

High-risk close contacts are placed on the COVID-19 list for at least five days after the date they come into contact with the person who tested positive, so Fisher and Schwartz could be available for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Chiefs are coming off of a bye in Week 10.
