Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, two additional members of the coaching staff and two players have tested positive for COVID-19 and will not be available for Sunday night’s AFC wild card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
In making the announcement Tuesday, the Browns said special teams coordinator Mike Priefer will serve as the acting head coach.
The Browns have closed their facility on Tuesday while contact tracing is taking place, and the team said it would consult with the league and medical experts about the next steps.
“The health and safety of our players, coaches, staff and the entire community remains our highest priority,” the team said in a statement.
