One member of the Los Angeles Chargers' organization tested positive for COVID-19 and two others have shown symptoms, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
None of the three are Chargers owner Dean Spanos, general manager Tom Telesco, or head coach Anthony Lynn.
"Everyone is doing well and is on the road to recovery," team spokesperson Josh Rupprecht said.
The positive diagnosis came toward the end of March. The Chargers closed their offices to non-essential staff on March 12 while essential staff continued to use the offices until March 17. The person who tested positive wasn't part of the latter group.
The Chargers alerted everyone who had been exposed to the infected employee and directed them to self-quarantine.
