The San Francisco 49ers shut down their facility Wednesday due to COVID-19 test results, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Wide receiver Kendrick Bourne reportedly tested positive, Schefter adds.

All the other 49ers' tests came back negative, a team source told Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area.

The 49ers will now commence contact tracing and will conduct team business virtually Wednesday.

The Niners are still scheduled to square off against the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football, a source told Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

The Packers are dealing with their own COVID issues after running back A.J. Dillon tested positive earlier in the week. Fellow tailback Jamaal Williams and linebacker Kamal Martin were ruled out of Thursday's contest.

Green Bay reported no new cases following its latest round of test results on Tuesday.
