Baltimore Ravens LB Jaylon Ferguson tests positive for COVID-19, sources say

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens reserve outside linebacker Jaylon Ferguson tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday morning, sources told ESPN.

The Ravens are undergoing contact tracing. If a player is unvaccinated and ruled a high-risk close contact, he must sit out at least five days and can return once he tests negative throughout.

Baltimore plays at the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

Ferguson, a backup who is in his third season, is the third Ravens player to test positive since the start of training camp in late July. Quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Gus Edwards tested positive at the start of camp and quarantined for 10 days.
