Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has reportedly tested positive for COVID-19, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport first reported on Thursday.

Jackson, the reigning NFL MVP, has been a star player for the Ravens. A spokesperson for the Ravens did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment on Thursday.

The Ravens are scheduled to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday, a week after a loss against the Tennessee Titans. A spokesperson for the NFL told Insider that there is "no change to the status of the game."

Earlier this week, the Ravens posted a statement that said "multiple members" of the team had tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. These members "immediately began" self-quarantining and the organization started contract tracing, according to the statement.

On Wednesday the Ravens said in a statement that they will "continue to follow guidance from the NFL and its medical experts, as we focus on safely resuming preparations for Sunday's game."
