PHILADELPHIA -- Eagles coach Doug Pederson has tested positive for the coronavirus, the team announced Sunday night.
Pederson convened an unscheduled team meeting Sunday to share the news with his players, according to sources, before the team made the announcement. He told the team after receiving a second positive test result, confirming the diagnosis.
Pederson, 52, is asymptomatic and doing well, according to the team, which added that he's in self-quarantine and communicating with the team's medical staff.
Quarterback coach/passing game coordinator Press Taylor was sent home from the facility as he'd been in close contact with Pederson, sources said, adding that Taylor has tested negative to this point.
