Eagles coach Doug Pederson tested positive for coronavirus, the team announced Sunday.

The Super Bowl-winning coach told his players the news during an unscheduled team meeting on Sunday after a second positive test, according to ESPN. 

“Pederson is asymptomatic and doing well,” the Eagles said in a statement. “He is currently in self-quarantine and in


communication with the team’s medical staff. The organization is following the protocols established by the NFL and the NFLPA. Any individuals in close contact with Pederson at our facility have been notified and will continue with daily testing


procedures and compliance with all protocols before returning to the facility.”

It is believed Pederson, 52, contracted the virus outside of the Eagles facility, according to ESPN. He will need to register multiple negative tests before he can return to work.

Pederson is the second NFL coach to test positive for coronavirus — following the since-recovered Saints coach Sean Payton — but is the first to do so since teams started gathering for training camp. The Eagles are scheduled to open the regular season Sept. 13 against the Washington Football team.
