Andrew Siciliano to Miss NFL RedZone Week 6 After Positive COVID-19 Test

Andrew Siciliano has been a constant presence on DIRECTV's NFL RedZone since 2005, but the program's host will be forced to sit out a week for the first time in history Sunday.

Siciliano announced he tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday morning, forcing him to watch the Week 6 action from home. DIRECTV's Dan Hellie will fill in as Siciliano's replacement.

"I am going to be on the couch this afternoon. I am going to miss the show for the first time ever, episode 261" Siciliano said in a video posted on Twitter shortly before kickoff of the early games on Sunday.
