Packer Player Test Positive for COVID

Clearly the test results were not instant or he wouldn’t have been out there. Hope it’s a false positive but really just a matter of time before this becomes even more widespread in the league and in general. Take precautions, even if you are not a million dollar athlete!

I guess from what i've read, everyone is tested sunday morning and the results usually don't come back until later that afternoon or evening. Then what is the point of testing players if they have an early game if you can't get the results back in time. Might as well not test them on Sunday then IMO.

That's what it was before Week 6.  The reason they implemented it is to assist with contact tracing.  Now they know that Dillon had it during the game (as opposed to not knowing until a day later but him still having it during the game).  Now they won't have to ask the "did he have it while on the field" question.  So now they can use that information to see if it spreads to the other team.  More information is better than ignorance.
