Matt Nagy Tests Positive For COVID-19
3 years agoChicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy announced that he has tested positive for COVID-19 and will enter the league's quarantine protocols. Four other Bears players are also on the COVID-19 list heading into a Week 8 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. They all need to provide two negative tests in order to be cleared for next Sunday. It's unclear if Nagy is experiencing any symptoms, but he is vaccinated. It's also unclear who would take over the interim head-coaching responsibilities in Week 8 if Nagy isn't cleared to return. It's bad news for a Bears offense that failed to score a touchdown in the 38-3 beatdown by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7.
