Steelers player tests positive for COVID-19

An anonymous player on the Pittsburgh Steelers has tested positive for the coronavirus, the team announced Monday following a 24-19 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. 

There is no word on whether or not the player competed in Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

The news of the positive tests comes just two days after a member of the Steelers staff tested positive. That positive test could be linked to the Baltimore Ravens, which had Marlon Humphrey test positive recently. 

Pittsburgh is set to take on the Cincinnati Bengals this weekend.
