Tyler Kroft has tested positive for COVID-19, the Buffalo Bills announced on Saturday evening. The tight end will miss Sunday’s regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins as a result.

Kroft memorably managed to dodge the coronavirus when it ran through the Bills tight end room earlier in the season, due to the birth of his daughter. As the only experienced option available against the New York Jets, Kroft had a season-high four catches for 64 yards. Lately, the Buffalo Bills have benched Kroft in favor of Dawson Knox and Lee Smith, and Kroft has only appeared in one game since week nine.
