Report: Patriots cancel practice Wednesday amid possible spread of COVID-19

The New England Patriots have reportedly canceled their practice on Wednesday after reports that COVID-19 may be spreading through their roster.

There have been widespread reports Wednesday that an additional Patriots player has tested positive for the coronavirus, which is what led the team to cancel Wednesday’s practice. The Patriots also had a positive test on Saturday, and quarterback Cam Newton was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list (though neither Newton or the Patriots confirmed whether he’d tested positive). Practice squad defensive tackle Bill Murray was reportedly placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday.
