After an embarrassing loss to the rival Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, the Green Bay Packers didn’t have time to rest before things got even more tumultuous.
On Monday, it was revealed that rookie running back AJ Dillon tested positive for Covid-19 in his pregame testing, meaning he was on the field. The Packers, already on a short week, were forced to close the building and handle the situation.
This will be a chaotic week for the team as it faces an unprecedented situation, on a short week, against a team they struggle against.
In wake of Dillon’s positive test, it was determined that running back Jamaal Williams and inside linebacker Kamal Martin were “high-risk close contacts,” meaning that they were in close proximity to Dillon and must be isolated for five days.
