Kelly Stafford: Entire Stafford family tested negative for COVID-19

Matthew Stafford needs 5 days of negative tests to return to the Lions

Kelly Stafford offered some positive news for Detroit Lions fans on her Instagram story feed on Thursday. She stated that the entire Stafford family, including husband – and Lions starting quarterback – Matthew have tested negative again for COVID-19.

“Okay y’all, I appreciate everyone reaching out and giving us well wishes,” Stafford posted, with a mask dangling from her ear. “We are fine. We are all negative (for COVID-19). My husband is negative. There was just a certain exposure. We have all been testing since the exposure.”

Her post comes a day after Matthew was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list by the Lions due to his exposure. If Stafford tests negative five days in a row after Monday’s initial exposure, he will be able to play in Week 9 in Minnesota. Wednesday was the first date of those tests.
