The season might be over but for the NFL, COVID-19 continues to be in the news. This time it is Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin. It came out on Monday, Tomlin had tested positive for COVID-19. In response to the reports, Tomlin released the following statement.

I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO REACHED OUT TO EXPRESS THEIR CONCERN FOR MY HEALTH.
LUCKILY I HAVE HAD MINIMAL SYMPTOMS AND I’M THANKFUL TO BE IN GOOD HEALTH. I WANT TO THANK THOSE MEDIA PROFESSIONALS WHO KNEW ABOUT MY SITUATION AND RESPECTED MY PRIVACY. IT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. I’LL BE BACK IN THE OFFICE SOON WHILE I CONTINUE TO WORK VIRTUALLY FROM MY HOME. THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND WELL WISHES!
It sounds like Tomlin’s case is quite mild and it hasn’t slowed him down from working. The team has just a few short weeks until the start of the new NFL year and there is a ton of work to be done to get the Steelers salary cap in order ahead of free agency.
