Matthew Stafford is back on the reserve/COVID-19 list for a virus he did not catch.
The Detroit Lions on Wednesday placed Stafford on the listing for the second time in three months, but there is hope the quarterback still can play in Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Stafford did not test positive for the novel coronavirus, but is considered a close contact of someone who did, ESPN reported.
Per NFL rules, Stafford must isolate for five days from the date of last contact, which ESPN reported was Monday.
