The 49ers on Thursday placed running back Jeff Wilson Jr. on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Wilson, who reported to training camp on Tuesday for the first round of testing, becomes the second 49ers player to go on the list. Receiver Richie James was placed on the COVID-19 list earlier this week.
Players go on COVID list for the purposes of being placed in quarantine as a result of an exposure to COVID-19 or a positive test for COVID-19. Teams are not allowed to identify exact reasons.
