Denver — The already shorthanded Detroit Lions lost two more players to the COVID-19 reserve list on Saturday, bringing the team's total to six on the week.
Included in that group are four defensive backs, including Saturday's additions, cornerbacks Ifeatu Melifonwu and Mark Gilbert. They joined safety Tracy Walker, cornerback Bobby Price, running back Jamaal Williams and center Evan Brown, who landed on the reserve list earlier this week.
Additionally, the Lions previously ruled out three players due to injury for Sunday's game in Denver — running back D'Andre Swift, outside linebacker Julian Okwara and inside linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin — while listing Pro Bowl tight end T.
