Hughes and Brooks also off the List; and Mundt (IR).

I believe the only Rams currently on the 53-player-roster, who are also on the COVID-List (at the moment) are Higbee, Fuller and Noteboom.

The NFL is a battle of attrition this year. I don’t know what kind of protocols a team can come up with and stick to at this point - but covid is going to have as much of a say in who wins this year as the teams on the field will.

In fantasy - I’m playing whoever I can as soon as they are available and avoiding Sunday night / Monday night games cause I can’t trust my studs to make it to the field.

We're gonna need Fuller back asap. I don't want to see too many games of teams gameplanning against his absence. I want him back for this one, the Vikes have a nice offense.

And Gervase who is back on the Practice Squad.

Looks like just six on the COVID-List right now ; and three are PS-players.

This time last Friday, it was 29 players on the COVID-List!

McVay says Fuller should be able to come-off the COVID-List tomorrow.

Saw Higbee might not play again this week, missing 3 games? I take it he must not be vaccinated?

Possible but not necessarily.

Reported that he missed the AZ game on a false positive.

Bad timing. Tested positive couple days before the game. Turned-out to be a false-positive and came off the COVID-List the day after the AZ game. Then tested positive a couple days later.

Also, COVID hits people differently. Some players take a little longer to recover. The Jets' Mike White was on the COVID-List for 23 days.

It is my understanding that he missed last week to a false positive and then tested again.

Second round was positive and he went back on the list.

It is significantly more likely that his negative test result was false than the other way around. That would also make a lot more sense as to why he tested positive, then negative, then positive again. False negatives are way more likely than false positives.

Just saw that myself! Excellent news! Been missing Higbee!
I think Noteboom is the only Ram player from the 53 that is currently on the COVID-List.

Also think all teams (including the Rams) will have additions to the List in the coming weeks; and some of those COVID-List-additions WILL impact the Post-Season ... Help some teams ... and Hurt others.

Hope I am wrong.
