Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury cleared to return vs. Houston Texans

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury has cleared the NFL's COVID-19 protocols and will return to the sideline for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Kingsbury tested positive for COVID-19 on Oct. 15 and missed the Cardinals' 37-14 victory last weekend over the Cleveland Browns. Kingsbury took three tests that day and a fourth early on Oct. 16 to confirm the diagnosis, a source told ESPN. The third-year coach was asymptomatic during his entire bout with COVID-19, the source said.

In order to return, Kingsbury needed two negative tests 24 hours apart.
