The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had done well to keep control of their players and staff to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, but disaster has struck.

It is officially time for the alarm bells to begin ringing. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have confirmed a positive COVID-19 case within the organization, according to Adam Schefter.

Schefter tweeted out that it was just an equipment manager, but this is no time to start underselling the problem. Equipment managers come into contact with the players, and it wouldn’t be unlikely for the virus to spread to one of the players.
