Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Jul 30, 2020 1:12 pm

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson has tested positive for the coronavirus, but said he feels \"strong and ready to go.\"

\"Over the past few months, I have tested negative after all travels including before and after the OL Masterminds Summit 18 days ago,\" Johnson said.

The Summit was a gathering of offensive lineman from around the league in Dallas earlier this month.

\"I have been working hard in preparation for a long, grueling season and have tried to take all necessary precautions to build a safe and healthy environment during the sessions. I have and will continue to take this seriously and encourage everyone else to do so as well,\" Johnson wrote on social media.

\"I will follow all protocols and I look forward to joining my teammates and coaches on the field soon.\"

In addition to Johnson, the Eagles also placed linebacker Nathan Gerry and tackle Jordan Mailata on the COVID-19/reserve list.
