Two weeks into voluntary football workouts, there is a Buffalo-sized question hanging over CU and the NCAA.
“If we can’t have contact and do stuff with our own teammates, how are we going to get on the field in a full-contact sport?” senior defensive end Mustafa Johnson said Wednesday. “Sacking the quarterback and social distancing don’t work for me.”
CU football players began returning to Boulder on June 15 with physical exams that included COVID-19 testing. Junior offensive lineman Will Sherman, a Texas native, said he was nervous traveling through Denver International Airport before receiving what he called an “easy swab” to check for the virus.
