Veteran Buffalo Bills cornerback Josh Norman will not travel with the team to play the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday after testing positive for COVID-19.

The Bills also announced on Saturday that tight end Tyler Kroft, cornerback Levi Wallace and safety Dean Marlowe were also placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list due to the NFL’s contract tracing protocols.

Defensive assistant coach Leonard Johnson also will not make the trip to Arizona.

Norman has appeared in 114 games with the Carolina, Washington and Buffalo, whom he signed with during the offseason.

The Bills elevated linebacker Darron Lee, as well as cornerback Daryl Worley, wideout Jake Kumerov, safety Josh Thomas and cornerback Dane Jackson from the practice squad.

The Bills are still scheduled to depart for Phoenix this afternoon, according to the team’s release, with the team scheduled to play the Cardinals at 2:05 p.m. on Sunday.
