Cleveland Browns wide receivers  Jarvis Landry, Rashard Higgins and  Donovan Peoples-Jones have been deemed high-risk close contacts after a player tested positive for COVID-19, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen.

Sunday's game at the  New York Jets will be played but the Browns are still awaiting word as to have many of the wideouts will not be able to travel, sources said. 

The Browns delayed their flight to New Jersey and shut down their facility Saturday after the positive test. 

Starting linebacker B.J. Goodson was placed on the COVID-19/reserve list while starting left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr., who was placed on the list earlier this week after coming into contact with an individual outside the organization who tested positive, was activated on Saturday.

The Browns could clinch their first playoff berth in 18 years on Sunday with a victory, and losses by either Miami, Baltimore or Indianapolis.
