Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich has tested positive for COVID-19 despite being vaccinated.
"I'm fortunate to be fully vaccinated and I'm asymptomatic," Reich said in a statement. "I'm feeling well and I'm looking forward to returning as soon as I'm medically cleared."
Next Monday is the earliest Reich can return to camp, Colts general manager Chris Ballard said Monday.
"I think Frank testing positive and showing no symptoms shows (vaccination) works," Ballard said. "It's a shame in our country right now that we've politicized something good."
Since NFL personnel returned to work last month, four players and 13 staffers have tested positive for COVID despite being vaccinated, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
