Silver Minings: NFL coronavirus test results are encouraging

The Las Vegas Raiders have now been in training camp for 16 days and, while the fight against the coronavirus pandemic is far from over, the statistics are trending in the right direction — in the NFL, at least.

With the Raiders starting to get in pads and start contact practices in four days, that is a strong sign.

NFL medical expert Dr. Allen Sills updated media members with the positive test numbers on Wednesday and it was good news. Less than1% of players have tested positive. Sills also said he doesn’t believe anyone who has tested positive has been, or still is, severely ill.
