It can be an issue, but they've found false positives with these tests. Last week, a Saint had that happen to him Saturday. It turned out to be false. Media typically wants to get info out ASAP, but rarely considers consequence of info that has impacts that are soon reversed.

I remember earlier this year when Nascar driver Jimmie Johnson had a false positive. He missed the only race in his very long career due to that false test. That had to be a bummer, but it beats having the coronavirus and risk spreading it to his crew.

I'd expect no less from the Raiders. And that's not a compliment.

I'd say bench them for a while. If they can't be a team player off the field, how can the coaching staff expect them to be team oriented on the field?

File this one under selfishness. Follow the freakin' protocol like everyone else!
