Nick Saban says he was surprised by the positive result of his routine coronavirus test because he is asymptomatic and adds that no players have tested positive.

Alabama coach Nick Saban tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday and is self-isolating at home while continuing to oversee his team's practices via Zoom.

"I found out earlier this afternoon that I had tested positive for COVID-19," Saban said in a statement.

Saban, 68, said he was feeling fine before the positive test result, which he said surprised him.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban explains how he received news of his positive COVID-19 test and how he was able to continue coaching his team from home.

Alabama team physicians Jimmy Robinson and Jeff Allen said Saban and Byrne were the only two individuals who tested positive "at this point in time" and said the school will follow the SEC's Return to Activity and Medical Guidance Task Force Protocol for testing asymptomatic positives.

"Today, I received notice that my COVID-19 test from this morning came back positive," Byrne said in a statement.
