Browns placed RB Dontrell Hilliard on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Hilliard joins Nigel Warrior (Baltimore), Kendall Futrell (Cincinnati), Jovante Moffatt (Cleveland), Jon’Vea Johnson (Dallas), and Aleva Hifo (Kanas City) as the first players to be placed on the list. This doesn’t guarantee that any of the six tested positive, only that they were exposed to the virus. Any player who tests positive or comes into close contact with an infected person is immediately placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Hilliard led the Browns with 421 kickoff return yards in 2019.
