The Cleveland Browns placed tight end David Njoku on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday.
While there is never a good time for something like this, especially with the Browns facing a divisional game against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, the timing is even more troublesome given that tight end Harrison Bryant is still nursing a high-ankle sprain, meaning the Browns could be without two of their three primary tight ends for the game.

If Njoku is vaccinated and tested positive, he can return once he is able to produce two negative tests 24 hours apart by Saturday, according to ESPN.
