Matthew Stafford, Keenan Allen officially cleared

Two prominent players whose Week 9 status was in limbo as a result of Covid concerns have been cleared to play today. Lions QB MATTHEW STAFFORD was thought to have been at elevated risk as a result of non-football exposure to an infected individual; Chargers WR KEENAN ALLEN either had or has a sore throat, which triggered fears that he might be infected himself. But both received negative test results this morning -- the final negatives they needed to be cleared to play today. We're not at all worried about Stafford at this point; Allen seems a bit more touch-and-go, as he may be sick with something even despite not having coronavirus.
