Cardinals' Zach Kerr: Placed on COVID-19 list
Rotowire
Kerr was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. This was the result of testing positive for the virus, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Kerr has recently missed time due to a rib injury, but he may be forced to miss even more time after entering COVID protocols. The 31-year old has provided depth on the defensive line for the Cardinals when healthy, and he'll work to clear protocols so he can do so again Sunday, against the Seahawks.

Rotowire
Kerr signed a one-year contract with the 49ers on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Javon Kinlaw (knee) is locked into a starting defensive tackle role in 2021, so Kerr will compete with D.J. Jones for a starting role.

Rotowire
Broncos head coach Vance Joseph said that Kerr sprained his ankle during Sunday's 27-11 loss to the Redskins, Nicki Jhabvala of The Denver Post reports.
Joseph indicated that the injury will prevent Kerr from practicing Wednesday, but the team is hopeful the defensive end can resume on-field work Thursday or Friday.

Broncos' Zach Kerr: Continues to nurse knee
Rotowire
Kerr (knee) was a limited participant in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Dallas.
Participating in practice all week -- even in limited fashion -- is a good sign for Kerr's return. If he does, he may be slated for additional snaps, due to the fact that Jared Crick (back) is potentially heading to injured reserve. If Kerr can't play, though, expect Adam Gotsis to take a bulk of the leftover snaps.
