The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed wide receiver Antonio Brown on the NFL’s Reserve/COVID-19 list, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.
As Stroud points out, Brown will need two negative COVID-19 tests 24 hours apart in order to be eligible to play in Sunday’s NFC road showdown against the 2-0 Los Angeles Rams.
Brown, the Bucs’ No. 3 receiver in a star-studded offense, led Tampa Bay with 121 yards and a touchdown on five receptions in Week 1, but managed just one catch for 17 yards in Sunday’s 48-25 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
If Brown is unavailable for Sunday’s game, look for Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson to have expanded roles in the offense.
