Atlanta Falcons rookie defensive lineman Marlon Davidson has tested positive for COVID-19, according to a league source, leading to him being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Davidson, a second-round draft pick out of Auburn, played 12 defensive snaps and five snaps on special teams in his team's 23-16 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.
The Falcons announced Davidson's addition to the reserve-COVID-19 list Tuesday afternoon, but are not allowed to comment on his health status or reveal how long he might be quarantined. Contact tracing factors into the situation, but there has been no immediate indication of any other team members in close contact with Davidson testing positive.
