Kamara becomes the second player to be placed on the COVID-19 list this week, along with C.J. Gardner-Johnson.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Kamara has tested positive for COVID-19, sidelining him for a minimum of 10 days.

Saints’ RB Alvin Kamara tested positive again and will be placed on Reserve/COVID, per source. He’s out Sunday and now the question will be whether he reruns for the first playoff game.
