New York Giants offensive assistant Stephen Brown tests positive for coronavirus

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants coaching staff is getting thin for this week's game against the Cleveland Browns after outside linebackers coach Bret Bielema left to become the head coach at the University of Illinois on Saturday morning and offensive assistant Stephen Brown tested positive for COVID-19.

Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett had already tested positive earlier in the week. He also will miss Sunday's game against the Browns.

The Giants are currently working with the league's chief medical officer regarding close contacts with Brown. In the meantime, the team is following its normal practice and meeting schedule for Saturday.
