Zach Banner, Marcus Allen Land On COVID-19 List
3 years agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers placed offensive tackle Zach Banner and linebacker Marcus Allen on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. It's unclear if either player actually tested positive for the virus, but if they did and are vaccinated, they can return to play on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs if they are asymptomatic and return a negative test. Banner has been a backup offensive lineman for Pittsburgh this year since returning from Injured Reserve, while Allen has mostly been a special teams performer for the Steelers, although he's had a sub-package role in the last two games on defense.
