Texans Players Reportedly Test Negative for COVID-19 After False Positives

The Houston Texans reportedly had more than the Pittsburgh Steelers to worry about leading up to Sunday's game at Heinz Field.

According to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle, the AFC South team "dealt with a batch of false positive COVID-19 tests for multiple players" prior to what turned into a 28-21 loss. The players were then required to take retests, which were all negative.

That meant nobody was forced to sit out of the game.
