The Washington Football Team will place quarterback Kyle Allen and defensive tackle Matt Ioannidis on the COVID-19 reserve list Wednesday. Washington now has 12 players on the list -- all of them placed within the last week -- ahead of Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Washington's troubles extend beyond injuries. The team is dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak -- on Monday, defensive tackle Jonathan Allen was one of four players who were placed on the league's COVID-19 reserve list. The other three who joined Allen are linebacker David Mayo, defensive end William Bradley-King and tight end Temarrick Hemingway.
