Another positive test for Browns

-

The Cleveland Browns reported another positive coronaviru­s test for an unidentifi­ed player, continuing what has become an almost daily pattern over the last two weeks.

The team closed its facility Thursday for the third consecutiv­e day to conduct tracing in order to find out if any others are considered high- risk close contacts.

The Browns placed defensive end Porter Gustin on the COVID- 19 list, further weakening a group already without star Myles Garrett.

Porter became the third player put on the list in the last three days for the Browns, who have been one of the NFL teams hit hardest by the virus.

Gustin is one of five players currently on Cleveland’s list along with Garrett, fullback Andy Janovich, linebacker Sione Takitaki and defensive end Joe Jackson. All will miss Sunday’s game at Jacksonvil­le.

The Browns activated offensive lineman Chris Hubbard off the list. He missed two games after testing positive Nov. 13.
