Bourne's positive test is the first by a 49ers player since linebacker Fred Warner landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on August 31. The team has not had a positive test since. Two others — wide receiver Richie James Jr. and running back Jeff Wilson Jr. — landed on the reserve/COVID-19 in July.
The 49ers are one day away from a Thursday-night matchup against the Green Bay Packers, which remains on schedule to be played, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
