Jared Veldheer Placed On COVID-19 List
4 years agoThe Green Bay Packers placed recently signed offensive tackle Jared Veldheer on the Reserve/COVID-19 list due to a positive test for the virus. It means that Veldheer will not make history (at least not yet) and become the first player in NFL history to play for two different teams in the same postseason. The 33-year-old offensive lineman played for the Colts in their wild-card loss last weekend to the Bills and then signed with Green Bay and was in line to play in the Divisional Round on Saturday against the Rams. It would have been a cool story, but Veldheer could still accomplish the feat if he's cleared from the league's COVID-19 protocols next week and the Packers advance past the Rams to the NFC Championship game.
