Ugh...here we go again.

The Cleveland Browns announced on Tuesday that TE Harrison Bryant and FS Andrew Sendejo have both been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. It is unclear at this time whether they tested positive, or if they are just close contacts of someone who did.

As far as we know, all of the Browns’ wide receivers continue to test negative and can be activated Thursday if that holds. But, with everything that happened last week and is now happening to start this week, anxiety among fans will no doubt be at an all-time high. Cleveland needs all hands on deck to win in Week 17 and clinch a playoff spot, and yet in the back of my mind, besides worrying about winning, now I keep thinking about, “What if someone else gets put on the list?”
