it did not say which coach, but please let it be Schwartz.

I hope you get a really inconvenient pimple somewhere that aches. How dare you wish something with 99.9% survival rate on someone.

First off, how did you know I had a pimple there.  But I wasn't wishing someone to get it, someone on the staff already got it, I am just hoping it turns out to be one specific person.

Do we know which coach yet? Have there been any reports?

It’s a wonder more games haven’t been cancelled. 

Reported as a "staff member".  Just wondering, does that necessarily mean it is a coach?  Could it be a scout or otherwise ... wouldn't they be considered "staff members"?  

Was just gonna say, the Eagles are reporting a staff member, they did not state a coach. A Staff member could be an equipment guy, medical staff, training staff, could be the trash guy.  If it was a coach, do you think they would have stated it as such?

This is wrong and classless.

So is understanding sarcasm and humor

A very serious virus that’s killed well over a million people worldwide and ravaged untold numbers more. Best wishes to the staff member.

I guess in theory it could be a canteen worker or a member of the cleaning team? They are staff members too.

Exactly ... that was my point, it doesn't necessarily mean it has to be a coach.  Lots of "staff members".

I don’t know why it matters so much for any of us to know.  Just hope whoever it is they get better (and don’t spread it).

Didn't the NBC guy who first tweeted it confirm with the team it was a coach?

Pretty sure for example groundskeepers, custodians and canteen staff are in tier 3 (franchise staff who's job doesn't require contact with playing or coaching staff) so I'm not sure they'd announce to the press in those circumstances.

I guess that would have leaked by now if it was?

I think it would be ultra protected. JMO though.

Sounds as though it is senior defensive assistant Jeremiah Washburn.
