The NFL revealed Sunday that several positive COVID-19 tests were found a day earlier by one of its testing partners. The Jets canceled a walk-through on Saturday night but had a full practice Sunday morning after the previously positive tests came back negative. The number of positive COVID-19 tests from a specific facility that might actually be false demonstrates the precarious position the NFL is in less than three weeks from the regular-season opener. Anyone testing positive for COVID-19 — even a false positive upon a retest — is required to have two more negative tests before being cleared to return. Heading into this weekend, there had been four confirmed positive tests for players who were at training camps.
