UK Unveils Plans and Protocols for Players’ Safe Return to Campus

About an hour after Kentucky Sports Radio reported that members of the Kentucky football team would return to team activities with a Monday morning workout, the University of Kentucky unveiled its plan for bringing players back to campus.

Beginning Monday, June 8 football players and essential staff will resume work on-campus. UK will limit who the players interact with to strength coaches, nutritionists and trainers, keeping coaches at home for the foreseeable future.

Players will receive antibody testing before they are allowed to resume voluntary activities. It’s one of the many protocols in place to protect the student-athletes.
