ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith announced on Tuesday that he has tested positive for COVID-19.
Smith said on First Take that he learned of his positive result over the weekend.
“I'm feeling fine. Mild symptoms,” Smith said. “Thank God I was vaccinated. Thank God I got the Pfizer vaccine, two shots a few months ago.”
He added that he has not yet received a COVID-19 booster shot.
Smith's positive test comes amid a surge in cases in the United States. As of Tuesday morning, according to The New York Times, there are more than 140,000 daily cases of COVID-19 on average, up 20% in the 14-day change.
