The NFL asked for a retest of 77 COVID-19 tests that came back positive from 11 teams, and found that all 77 were false positives.

All the tests came from a single lab in New Jersey; the NFL uses a total of five labs that service the 32 teams. "Clubs are taking immediate precautionary measures as outlined in the NFL-NFLPA's health and safety protocols to include contact tracing, isolation of individuals and temporarily adjusting the schedule, where appropriate," the NFL said in a statement. "The other laboratories used for NFL testing have not had similar results."
