Detroit Lions place Matthew Stafford on reserve/COVID-19 list

According to several reports, the Detroit Lions are placing starting quarterback Matthew Stafford on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

As a reminder, this does not necessarily mean that Stafford has tested positive for the coronavirus. It could also mean he has come into contact with someone who has tested positive. Given that seven other Lions have been placed on the same list, it’s certainly possible that’s the outcome.

The other seven Lions on the reserve/COVID-19 list include wide receiver Kenny Golladay, tight end T.J. Hockenson and Isaac Nauta, cornerbacks Justin Coleman and Amani Oruwariye, safety Jalen Elliott and punter Arryn Siposs.
