Ole Miss football won’t practice Wednesday due to COVID-19 safety protocols. 

A statement posted on Twitter explains that contact tracing is underway following a “small number” of positive cases among players and staff. 

Monday, Kiffin was asked about the early onset of an outbreak within the program. 

“It is manageable,” he said at the time. “My fear always when you get a few, then it starts trickling. Who were they around and even if they’re not roommates. I really like obviously when it’s zero like it was last week.”

The Rebels were scheduled to take on LSU this weekend, but now have the weekend off after a recent reshuffling of the schedule by the SEC.
