Rams practice squad TE Kendall Blanton lands on reserve/COVID-19 list for 2nd time

Just two days after announcing that they placed Jachai Polite on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the Los Angeles Rams have added another practice squad player to the list. The Rams placed tight end Kendall Blanton on reserve/COVID-19 Monday, marking his second stint on the list.

Blanton was on the list for a few days in November but was then activated and returned to the practice squad. This does not mean Blanton tested positive for COVID-19, as he could just be a close contact of someone who has.

The Rams have done well to manage this difficult situation amid the pandemic, avoiding any outbreaks and only having isolated cases during the season.

They have not been together as a team since Thursday when they hosted the Patriots at SoFi Stadium, but are set to resume practicing for Week 15 on Wednesday.
