Kelly Stafford, who dealt with Matthew Stafford being placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list prior to the start of the regular season, has taken to Instagram, and as she said…here we go again.
UPDATE:
According to an update from Adam Schefter, Stafford has not yet tested positive for COVID-19 but he is considered a “high-risk close contact” from a non team member.
His last contract was Monday, which means he would be eligible to suit up against the Vikings, as long as he does not end up testing positive.
Lions' QB Matthew Stafford is considered a "high-risk, close contact" from a non team member, per source. His last contact was Monday, which means he would be eligible to come off the Resvere/COVID list Sunday and play vs. the Vikings, pending negative tests for him, per source.

Tom Pelissero is reporting that Stafford will have to fly on a private jet to Minnesota but as long as he does not test positive between now and Sunday, he will be able to play against the Vikings.
The #Lions have to fly Matthew Stafford on a private plane to Minnesota because he'll still be in the five-day isolation window when the team departs Saturday, per source. He also can't practice all week. But as long as he tests negative and no COVID symptoms, he can play Sunday.
