An overall view as the Houston Texans take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on November 12,2006 at Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida. The Texans defeated the Jaguars 13-10.
The Jacksonville Jaguars placed four rookie players on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, with two of the players being mid-round selections in this year’s NFL Draft.
The rookies includes undrafted free agents Luq Barcoo and Tre’Vour Wallace-Simms, as well as third-round pick and former Ohio State defensive tackle Davon Hamilton and fourth-round pick and former Michigan State corner Josiah Scott.
While Barcoo, Wallace-Simms and Hamilton have not openly commented on the news, Scott took to Twitter on Monday to explain where he’s at in terms of testing.
“My first test for Covid came back positive but then was re-tested multiple times the following days after that and those results have all been negative. My first test was a false positive guys so we’re all good just had to do the protocol.”
Scott was the second defensive back taken by the Jaguars in the 2020 NFL Draft, with the Spartan joining Jacksonville after the team selected Florida’s C.
