The Atlanta Falcons closed their practice facility on Thursday after it was reported that numerous players had tested positive for COVID-19. The team denied this claim and said there was just one positive test.
According to Jason Butt of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the positive test came from a Falcons assistant coach.
