Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll tests positive for COVID-19

RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has tested positive for COVID-19 and is experiencing mild symptoms while at home, the team announced on Monday.

According to the Seahawks' statement, Carroll tested positive on Sunday, which was a day off for players. He's remaining at home and is in communication with his coaching staff with the plan to participate in team meetings virtually until he returns to the facility.

In March, the NFL and its players' union suspended the COVID-19 protocols that had been in place the past two seasons. CDC guidelines, which the league is now following, state that an individual who tests positive for COVID-19 or experiences symptoms should isolate for at least five days.
