GREEN BAY, Wis. – With the Green Bay Packers the latest NFL team to be hit by a COVID-19 onslaught, coach Matt LaFleur is considering making this a week of virtual preparation to limit the interaction between players and staff.
On Monday, the Packers placed offensive lineman Ben Braden , outside linebacker Tipa Galeai, receiver Amari Rodgers, inside linebacker Ty Summers and practice squad defensive lineman R.J. McIntosh on their COVID-19 list. They join receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who spent last week on the COVID list, as well as cornerbacks Kevin King and Shemar Jean-Charles and practice-squad outside linebacker La'Darius Hamilton, who were added to the COVID list shortly before Saturday’s game against Cleveland.
