This is wild: Nearly the entire #Raiders starting defense is going on the COVID-19 list because of high-risk close contacts, but all are eligible to play in the game if they continue to test negatively, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) November 18, 2020 The #Raiders on the COVID-19 reserve list. Add in Clelin Ferrell and Lamarcus Joyner, and that’s… a lot. pic.twitter.com/vjD2oR9a9a — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) November 18, 2020 The list includes safety Jonathan Abram, defensive tackle Maliek Collins, DT Johnathan Hankins, DT Kendal Vickers, DB Isaiah Johnson and DE Arden Key. The players will be able to play on Sunday against the Kansas City chiefs if they continue to test negative for COVID-19. This is a disadvantage to the team as they will not be able to practice prior to the game. The league will operate under intensive protocol for the remainder of the season. The team has faced more than $1M dollars in fines for various COVID-19 violations.
