But if a player tests positive and is asymptomatic, he can return 10 days after the initial positive test or just five days if he has two consecutive negative tests. I think we all knew at some point we might get some positive tests.

Now, Fuller is back with the Washington Football Team, and said the adversity he overcame in Kansas City made him a better player. All the adversity that I had pushed through throughout the season, Fuller said. Corner and nickel, Fuller said.
