Score one for the players.
NFL players have a number of concerns as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to grip the United States. One was how frequently they would be tested for the coronavirus, hoping to have it happen daily.
Mark Maske of the Washington Post reported Monday the test will take place every day during camp. There are conditions that would make it every other day.
NFL players will be tested daily for coronavirus for the first two weeks of training camps. If the positive rate for Tier 1 and 2 individuals falls below 5 percent at any point, testing of players becomes every other day.
