Former Jaguar Tony Boselli Describes Coronavirus Battle in ICU: 'The Lowest, Scariest Moment'

Former Jaguars offensive tackle Tony Boselli is the latest sports figure to reveal his diagnosis and battle with the coronavirus amid the pandemic.

In an interview with The Florida Times-Union, Boselli, 47, detailed how he started experiencing congestion and cold symptoms on March 16 before he woke up two days later "feeling lousier" with a fever. He found out on March 18 that he and his wife Angie had recently been exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID-19, and he promptly went to the Mayo Clinic to be tested.

On March 20, Boselli's test result came back positive for the coronavirus and he was hospitalized due to his severe symptoms.
