Texas A&M players unaffected by UF COVID outbreak...for now

News broke on Tuesday that the Florida Gators had ceased all football activities following a surge in positive COVID-19 cases among their players. The team now has 19 active cases, and after just traveling to College Station to play Texas A&M last Saturday, everyone is naturally concerned that positive test results could start happening on the Aggie roster as well.

At least so far, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

“We have been in touch with officials at the University Florida and have also reviewed the available data from the Kinexon contact tracing system deployed by the SEC,” said Texas A&M Athletic Director Ross Bjork.
