Detroit Lions' Jared Goff feeling fine after testing positive for COVID: 'A mild cold'

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff said he feels "fine" after testing positive for COVID-19, but is not sure if he can return to play in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.

“I’m feeling good," Goff said in his weekly interview with 97.1 WXYT-FM. "It’s pretty much a mild cold. I’m feeling fine. I had some symptoms pop up really Sunday night after the game, Monday morning. I said, 'You know what, I might as well make sure I’m good to go,' and sure enough I’m positive."

The Lions placed Goff and two others on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, bringing their COVID outbreak to 13 cases in 15 days.
