Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson has tested positive for COVID-19 and will be absent from the team’s training camp while in quarantine at his home.
The Eagles announced Sunday that the coach tested positive for the coronavirus. Pederson held a virtual news conference with reporters Monday. He said he is asymptomatic.
“I’m not going to speculate on a timetable for me [to return],” Pederson said Monday. “I’ll treat it just like [we] treat players.
“When I’m back, I’m back.”
Assistant coach Duce Staley will handle on-site tasks while Pederson is away. Pederson will continue to lead virtual meetings.
