Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown is still in COVID-19 protocol and will miss Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Brown, who tested positive for COVID-19 mid-week, didn't travel to Los Angeles with the team. He needed to register two negative tests for a chance to play.

Brown ranks second on the Buccaneers in receiving through two weeks with 138 yards, trailing only Chris Godwin. The 33-year-old was quiet against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2 after posting 121 yards and a touchdown versus the Dallas Cowboys in the season opener.

The Buccaneers carry a 2-0 record into Week 3 and haven't dropped a decision since the Kansas City Chiefs topped them in Week 12 of the 2020 season.
