(Reuters) - The
Baltimore Ravens on Monday said the team had placed running
backs Mark Ingram and J.K. Dobbins, as well as defensive tackle
Brandon Williams on the Reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of the
team's Thanksgiving day showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Earlier in the day, the team had said multiple members of the
organization were self-isolating and that contact tracing
efforts were underway after the team received positive test
results late Sunday night.
The team closed its practice facility on Monday morning but
reopened it later in the day.
"We got started with virtual meetings this afternoon," coach
John Harbaugh said during a video call with reporters.
"We're just carrying forward with our normal schedule at this
point, working hard and getting ready for a big challenge
Thursday night against the undefeated Steelers."
Also on Monday, the Minnesota Vikings announced that star wide
receiver Adam Thielen had been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19
list.
The Reserve/COVID-19 list is for players who either test
positive for the virus or have had close contact with a person
who has. The players return is subject to "medical clearance."
