“#Steelers’ James Conner tests positive for coronavirus<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner and an unidentified assistant coach have tested positive for COVID-19, NFL Network reported on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Per the report, Conner is awaiting a second test on Sunday to confirm the results. He is a cancer survivor \u2014 a group that the medical community has said could be at increased risk for complications from the virus.<\/p>\n

The report comes on the heels of the Steelers placing defensive end Stephon Tuitt, defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs and offensive lineman Jerald Hawkins on the reserve\/COVID-19 list Friday.<\/p>\n

It also comes after the NFL moved the initially scheduled game<\/a> between the Steelers (10-0) and the visiting Baltimore Ravens (6-4) from Thursday night to Sunday afternoon to now Tuesday night. NBC will televise the game, set for 8 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n

The moves have been necessitated because of an outbreak of COVID-19 among the Ravens.<\/p>\n

If this game occurs as now planned on Tuesday, the NFL will move the Ravens\u2019 Week 13 game as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cShould the game be played on Tuesday, the Week 13 Dallas Cowboys at Baltimore Ravens game, originally scheduled for Thursday, December 3, will be moved to Monday, December 7, at 5:00 p.m. ET and will be broadcast nationally on FOX\/NFL Network\/Amazon,\u201d the league said in a statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese decisions were made out of an abundance of caution to ensure the health and safety of players, coaches and game day personnel and in consultation with medical experts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Steelers remain set to host the Washington Football Team in Week 13 on Dec. 6.<\/p>\n

The Steelers earlier saw their game against the Tennessee Titans rescheduled because of an outbreak affecting the Tennessee team. That moved forced the Steelers to have a Week 4 bye and gave them games in 13 straight weeks to end the season. Pittsburgh hoped to play on Thanksgiving to have the weekend off.<\/p>\n

Conner, 25, leads the Steelers in carries (145), rushing yards (645) and rushing touchdowns (five). He also has 25 catches for 145 yards.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
