On Monday, the Minnesota Vikings added two more players to their (far too rapidly) growing COVID-19 list.
Reserve linebacker Ryan Connelly was placed on the team’s COVID-19 list, while offensive tackle Timon Parris was placed on the practice squad COVID-19 list, which is apparently a thing that exists and I was not aware of until now.
Connelly has not seen the field on defense yet this season, but has played over 60% of the team’s special teams snaps so far. Parris was signed to the practice squad in late October.
Connelly and Parris join Garrett Bradbury, Dakota Dozier, and Harrison Smith on the COVID-19 list for the Vikings.
