Ya, the PS expansion doesn’t make too much sense unless they were expecting some of the injuries due to no preseason/limited training camps.
I understand the NFL rules regarding the positive cases. What I’m asking about is that a “confirmed positive” case, like these 3 players, being allowed to return after 5 days if asymptomatic (which they are to my knowledge) and 2 negative tests a couple days after the positive.
That means a confirmed positive would have only had the virus for appx 3-4 days. (Negative each day prior to the positive, which was retested to confirm, then another test a couple days later and again 24 hours later with 2 negatives)
How is the virus, “confirmed positive”, running it’s course in 3-4 days? Is everywhere else (not NFL) being THAT cautious that a timeline of 10 - 14 days of quarantine is getting pushed? Wouldn’t that mean the NFL is being careless?
Edit:
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
CDC says 10 days before joining people for asymptotic positive tests. Makes me think the NFL must be fairly careless about this which makes me think the tests are just to appease someone in the first place.
