The father of former NFL star Eddie George has tested positive for COVID-19, according to Erik Bacharach of the Tennessean (via USA Today).
George's father lives in an assisted living facility in Philadelphia.
Though he was diagnosed last week, Eddie George Sr. is reportedly "feeling a lot better" and "seems to be in good spirits and improving health," the NFL star said of his father Wednesday.
In addition to his age at 70 years old, preexisting conditions are also a concern in this case.
