The Washington Football Team's players officially began reporting for training camp today with rookies, quarterbacks and players returning from Injured Reserve getting tested for COVID-19.
Players began arriving at the team facility at 7 a.m. in small groups by charter buses and were tested in a medical trailer that was stationed at the far end of the parking lot. Players had their temperature taken by a medical professional and then were given a nasal swab to test for the novel coronavirus.
"Alright guys, welcome," head coach Ron Rivera said to the first group of players. "It's not what we all wanted. It's a little different, but we'll make the best of it and understand it's our new normal and don't let it get in our way. Stay safe, distance, distance, distance and keep yourselves six feet."
