Javon Kinlaw Placed On COVID-19 List
4 years agoThe San Francisco 49ers placed rookie defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. The first-round has recorded 22 tackles (10 solo), three quarterback hits, three passes defensed and 1.5 sacks in 10 games (eight starts) to begin his NFL career. Even if Kinlaw actually tested positive for COVID-19, he should have plenty of time to clear the league's protocols and play in Week 12 against the division-rival Rams. The 49ers are currently on their bye in Week 11, so the timing is good for Kinlaw and San Francisco's defensive line. The Niners defense was an attractive fantasy unit coming into the season, but they've been decimated by injuries and won't be a strong consideration against LA.
