https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/29339709/kansas-state-suspends-football-workouts-14-days-positive-coronavirus-tests Kansas State has suspended all football workouts for 14 days following the most recent coronavirus test results, the school said Saturday.
As of Friday, 14 athletes out of 130 tested across sports were positive for COVID-19. They are in self-isolation for 10 days or until the patient is without fever for 72 hours without medication, whichever takes longer.
"The health and well-being of our student-athletes will always be our top priority," K-State athletics director Gene Taylor said. "Following the most recent test results, we felt like temporarily pausing all football workouts and access to our facilities was the best decision for everyone. We continue to take this situation very seriously and want to do everything we can to get back to workouts soon."
