While it can’t be disclosed whether or not James tested positive for the virus, he’s at least been in close contact with someone who has. He’ll likely be on the list for a couple of weeks prior to joining the team for workouts. James broke his wrist earlier this summer, so this is just another “setback” in his recovery. San Francisco is all of a sudden becoming thin at the WR position with both Deebo Samuel and James suffering injuries and/or being placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.
