Apparently, the Ravens have four different strains of the virus.

I don't know that the strains are highly contagious or not; I think it's more that the individual was a super-spreader. But regardless, it goes to show that a) bringing COVID-19 in from the community was not a fluke for these players and b) it's possible to spread it within the organization. Moreover, if it was possible for four players to independently get COVID-19 from the community, then it is possible for them to spread it back out to the community.

Quote:"Three of the four were stopped and not spread within our organization," Ravens president Dick Cass said in a statement. "Unfortunately, the fourth was a highly-contagious strain and spread throughout our organization."
