James Conner tests positive for Covid-19

My prayers go out to James Conner for a quick recovery after testing positive. My heart goes out to the guy as he is a high risk candidate being a cancer survivor.

God Bless you James! May God protect you and care for you for a speedy healthy and safe recovery.

 

Amen.

It is not clear just how much higher risk a cancer survivor faces with COVID-19. People who actively have cancer, especially those going through chemotherapy or radiation therapy, face a significantly higher risk because their immune system is compromised.

I'm afraid he is not going to be the last Steeler that tests positive between now and Tuesday. That is four in two days including two starters.

 

We don't know if Tuitt, Hawkins, and Buggs tested positive. They could all be close contacts. I don't think that is likely if Conner's positive test was today, but it isn't clear yet.

 

Right, I forgot about that.

 

He's a tank! I'm sure he'll be fine soon but I'll include him in my prayers regardless.

 

See why I told you not to jump to throwing the book at the Ravens? This has the potential to get worse with all NFL teams.

 

When we discover that the Steelers created the issue by breaking protocol, I will consider the situations equal.

 

Well it was fun while it lasted. Season is screwed.

 

Sad ****!!!!! I am now convinced one of the greatest Steeler seasons will go down the drain.

I do think all the players are strong enough to beat it but unless a cure is found it will take so many years for our species to build an immunity and just like us Covid wants to live so I'm sure it's trying it's ass off to mutate into something stronger.

 

Sounds like you're hoping this comes true. WTF?

 

If course not. I should have written if instead of when.

 

Calm down brother. We made it this far. They’ll get a solution figured out.

 

Hope he recovers had covid myself back in april and barely survived. My team the colts has a few covid as well.

 

I hate to ask and feel free to ignore but can you describe your experience with Covid? It would probably be of benefit to some on here who sometimes act as though it's not serious

 

I don't think they could do a bubble for the regular season, if they can't get it under control, it could be a solution for the playoffs though.

 

I am really surprised the teams have been able to keep a lid on this virus for this long.

James wish you well get healthy.

Mask up and play no huddle rest of the year.

 

It’s random. Some don’t feel squat or barely a struggle, others don’t get lucky

 

Prayers sent!

Speedy recovery James!

 

Yea my experience was bad was hospitalized 4 times. Had 105 fever body aches, chills, hallucinations, head ache, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, coughing, stuffy and runny nose, difficulty breathing. Was out of work about 7 weeks. Was hooked to oxygen and C pac. They used nebulizers like for severe asthma treatments and was given a bunch of shots. Those potassium pills were the biggest pills I ever had to swallow. It was a nightmare.

 

Also had loss of appetite and taste

 

Well dang. Now we look bad too. Probably more teams will get nailed by this virus in the coming days.

 

Thank you for sharing, some of us need to know more of the symptoms associated with this horrible
sickness, maybe then we can all abide by cdc guidelines. Please everybody be safe.
