Saints place Jameis Winston on reserve/COVID-19 list
The New Orleans Saints have placed quarterback Jameis Winston on the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead just hours before their Week 15 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
It's unclear what this means as of right now for the status as of today's game, as we do not know if Winston himself tested positive, or if he came into contact with someone who had been exposed to the virus. We saw with the Dez Bryant situation just a couple weeks ago that the NFL will likely carry on as usual despite this late news, but we'll find out more as their 4:25PM kickoff approaches.
If the game does carry on as scheduled, this means Taysom Hill would become the direct backup to Drew Brees (ribs).
