Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn has recovered from coronavirus according to CBS News on Wednesday. Lynn is the third National Football League head coach to have had the disease. Lynn follows Doug Pederson of the Philadelphia Eagles and Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints.

The state of California has the most cases of coronavirus among all states in the United States of America. There are currently 597, 313 cases in California, 346, 766 active cases, and 10, 841 deaths.

Among Lynn’s symptoms included a cough and body aches. He believes he might have got other people infected because he initially did not know he had coronavirus. It was not until he was watching the PGA Tour, that he heard about a golfer who had similar symptoms to him. Lynn then went out to get tested, and it turned back positive.

Lynn is 51 years old and initially from McKinney, Texas. He is about to start his fourth season as the Chargers head coach. In 48 games, the Chargers have a record of 26 wins and 22 losses.

In 2018, the Chargers had a great season with Lynn at the helm. Los Angeles reached the postseason with a record of 12 wins and four losses and was in second place in the AFC West. The Chargers then stunned the Baltimore Ravens 23-17 in the AFC Wildcard, before being beaten 41-28 to the New England Patriots in the AFC Divisional Playoff.

In addition to coaching the Chargers, Lynn also coached one game with the Buffalo Bills in 2016. He was the interim head coach for a brief time when the Bills fired Rex Ryan.
