A large number of LSU football players have been placed into quarantine in an effort to curtail the spread of the coronavirus, sources confirmed to ESPN.
The news was first reported by Sports Illustrated, which placed the total number of players in quarantine at 30 or more.
However sources told ESPN that not all players in isolation have tested positive; some are in isolation as they await their test results.
LSU began voluntary workouts on June 9.
According to reports, state health officials on Friday confirmed an outbreak of at least 100 coronavirus cases that could be traced back to bars at the popular Tigerland area near campus.
