Latest WFT lineman to test positive Wise tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday and will be placed on Washington's reserve/COVID-19 list, Albert Breer of SI.com reports. Impact Wise was one of three Washington players to test positive for the virus Friday, joining starting quarterback Taylor Heinicke and practice squad running back Wendell Smallwood. If Wise is vaccinated, the NFL and NFLPA's new protocols for COVID-19 could theoretically allow him to gain clearance ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles, but that seems like an unlikely outcome. Wise's expected absence further decimates Washington's depleted defensive line, which now has seven members of the reserve/COVID-19 list and two more on injured reserve.
