Fan Who Attended Texans vs. Chiefs Has Tested Positive for COVID-19

The Kansas City Chiefs announced a fan who attended their season-opening victory over the Houston Texans tested positive for COVID-19.

The team explained how the health and safety and contract tracing protocols set up at Arrowhead Stadium limited the potential exposure to others inside the venue:

"The individual and the individual's group were seated in the lower level of the stadium. By design, the stadium's COVID protocol plan limited potential exposure to a single seating zone within the stadium. All staff with known interactions with the positive case were required to wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including a mask.
