Not that it probably matters but if KB had a false positive test why the hell does he still have to be out? It seems completely unnecessary.

Now they're saying that Bourne's test may have been a false positive. If they got a negative how do they know it's not false. I don't trust these tests. If they keep getting so many false positives I have to wonder if they're doing them right every time. Same with the negatives. I don't know what else they can do but this process seems to be really hit and miss.

No excuse why these teams are playing tonight. Accomodations have been made this season in a similar circumstance elsewhere. This game should be flexed out of tonight's time slot.

That's why they won't let them play today. 104 players have had a positive test result, only to be tested and it come up negative the next time. 101 of those players that had a negative follow up test were actually positive with the virus after more intensive testing.
The league knows the testing is suspect and always plays on the safe side.

Probably this.
Update: Kendrick Bourne's test came back positive Wednesday and negative today. There have been 104 instances this season of a positive one day and a negative the next - and it has been proven positive 101 of the 104 times with further testing.

God forgive me, but I hope this s**t happens to Mahomes, Russell or Brady just to see how the league handles it.

Not gonna lie, I won't be watching this JV team against Rogers as this game should've been moved.

They would shut the league down for 3 weeks if Mahomes tested positive for covid.

It would lose their Thursday Night Football game broadcast. That's it. That's the only reason not to push this game back. Forcing the 49ers to play with one active WR and 3 practice squad WRs is absolutely ridiculous. Their prime time game is more important to them than giving a team a fair chance at fielding a legitimate team.

Guys - we aren't making the playoffs. Let's accept that, take the L, and get this top 10 draft pick.
