Eric Ebron Placed On Reserve/COVID-19 List
4 years agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers will be without their starting tight end against the Cleveland Browns in Week 17 as Eric Ebron was placed on the league's reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday. Ebron was deemed a close contact and will join cornerback Joe Haden and linebacker Cassius Marsh on the list as the team gears up for the season finale. Haden himself has tested positive for COVID-19. Without Ebron in the fold, look for Vance McDonald to assume TE1 duties against a Cleveland defense that has been generous to the position this season. That being said, McDonald's ceiling is capped by the fact that he will be catching passes from Mason Rudolph and not Ben Roethlisberger.
