A statement posted to the department’s Facebook page read, “To the residents of Gallia County, we regret to inform you of the passing of our positive COVID-19 case in Gallia County. Out of respect to the family we urge you not to speculate on the identity of this individual and allow the family to grieve. This is a devastating situation and our thoughts and prayers go out to all those impacted by this tragic passing. Our case investigation has been completed and all individuals who may have had contact with a positive COVID-19 case or symptomatic individuals have been notiﬁed and given instructions on isolation and quarantine. We assure all of you that a thorough case investigation has been conducted See DEATH | 3A OhioHealth expanding testing sites ATHENS — As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, OhioHealth will expand to four total COVID-19 ambulatory testing sites based on supply availability. In addition to the recently opened central Ohio location, the following sites open this week: · Tuesday, March 24 – Mansﬁeld and Athens · Wednesday, March 25 – Marion Times and date are subject to change, but the testing sites are currently scheduled for 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m.-2 p.m. on weekends. This testing site is not an on-demand testing site for the general public. People will be turned away without a physician order from the OhioHealth COVID19 Clinical Team. Currently, OhioHealth is reserving the tests for the highest risk patients. OhioHealth will continue to expand (or suspend) the testing locations based on supply availability. As soon as testing capacity is used up each day, triage lines will be turned off until the following day. The targeted population for testing are patients with symptoms who are 60 years or older with comorbidities (uncontrolled diabetes, immune-suppressed, CHF/COPD) or healthcare providers/ associates. A patient that is included in the targeted population must present with a physician order and symptoms that qualify for a test which include: · Fever · New or worsening shortness of breath · Cough · Acute fatigue · Confusion OhioHealth has established processes to allow providers who do not use our electronic medical records to refer patients to the sites as well.

The crew will then make a decision as to whether or not the patient’s condition requires transport to an emergency department. If the patient condition requires further evaluation at an emergency department, that patient will be placed in isolation precautions and transported as appropriate. If it is decided that the patient does not meet criteria making transport necessary, they will be educated on the best practices to manage their condition. These decisions will been made in coordination with our medical director and local healthcare resources,” read information from EMS.

OhioHealth O’Bleness takes additional steps ATHENS — In order to help reduce the possibility of transmission of COVID-19, the hospital will be erecting a triage tent outside the OhioHealth O’Bleness Hospital Emergency Department (ED) entrance. The goal is to keep those who have ﬂu-like symptoms separate from those who do not. This is a proactive measure taken in collaboration with the Athens County Emergency Management Agency and Athens County EMS to be prepared in the event the process of outside triage becomes necessary. It is not a walk-up site for COVID-19 screening. How it will work: · When a patient comes to the ED for treatment of an injury or other reason, they will ﬁrst go into the triage tent where they will be quickly screened. · Depending on the result, the patient will either be directed to the normal intake desk inside the ED or onto an alternate pathway into the ED for treatment. This will help limit the exposure to other members of the community and care team. In this unprecedented time, the main focus is the health and safety of our patients and associates. This triage process will help us accomplish that. Additionally, OhioHealth is implementing temperature screenings for patients, visitors and staff. Because of the evolving situation surrounding COVID-19, OhioHealth is implementing a temperature screening process beginning Monday, March 23, at 5 p.m. All OhioHealth associates, care providers, patients and those visitors (who fall under exceptions, i.e., end of life situations) coming into an OhioHealth care site will be required to have their temperature taken as part of the COVID-19 screening process. If the temperature is above 100 degrees, that person will not be allowed to enter the building. Monday, March 23, at 5 p.m. Screening stations will be put in place at all entrances for the following care sites to screen all associates, providers and patients: · All OhioHealth hospitals and medical ofﬁce buildings attached to hospitals · This may mean access point changes Tuesday, March 24, 7 a.m., any associate, provider or patient coming into any of the following locations will be required to have their temperature taken as part of the COVID-19 screening process. · All OhioHealth ambulatory locations · OhioHealth Physician Group locations · All Freestanding Emergency Departments · All outpatient oncology ofﬁces · Kobacker House OhioHealth Hospitals: · OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital · OhioHealth Grant Medical Center · OhioHealth Doctors Hospital · OhioHealth Grady Memorial Hospital · OhioHealth Dublin Methodist Hospital · OhioHealth Hardin Memorial Hospital · OhioHealth Marion General Hospital · OhioHealth O’Bleness Hospital · OhioHealth Mansﬁeld Hospital · OhioHealth Shelby Hospital · OhioHealth Grove City Methodist Hospital · OhioHealth Berger Hospital ofﬁcers, the county and others.

Concluding the March 17 primary — currently rescheduled for June 2 — suspending evictions and foreclosures, prohibiting utility cut-offs and creating a grace period for people unable to renew their driver’s license with almost all BMVs shut down are also high on the priority list of lawmakers and Republican Gov. Mike DeWine. The GOP-controlled House and Senate are both scheduled to meet Wednesday and Thursday. Lawmakers would have to suspend rules to pass legislation on an emergency basis without the normal schedule of committee hearings. Lawmakers in the 99-member House will be divided into rooms around the Statehouse to create distance between them. On the Senate side, senators feeling sick are encouraged to stay home and those having had contact with anyone testing positive for COVID19 must stay home, according to a Senate memo released Tuesday afternoon. The Senate is also discouraging business attire, “which is cleaned less frequently than casual clothing,” the memo said. Much of the coming legislation will involve ﬂexibility in dealing with the pandemic, DeWine said Monday. “It’s different ways we can get things done as we deal with this crisis every single day,” he said. Senate President Larry Obhof said lawmakers must deal only with “issues that are timesensitive or directly address needs created by the pandemic.” Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose has proposed a plan by which postage-paid absentee ballots would be sent to every Ohioan who hadn’t already voted in the March 17 primary, along with return postage. LaRose also wants continued discretion to allow in-person voting on June 2 if DeWine’s “stay at home” order is no longer in place. A proposal in the GOP-controlled House would limit the remainder of the primary to absentee balloting concluded by April 28. LaRose, a Republican and former lawmaker, said June 2 is the earliest date to manage such an undertaking. House and Senate leaders and DeWine all agree that mandatory testing in schools shouldn’t happen this year, and there is also support to forgo district and school report cards. A proposal by minority Democrats in the House would allow students who met the proper academic requirements by March 17 to graduate or advance to the next grade, and let individual school districts make case-by-case decisions for those who hadn’t. A House proposal would also push any changes in the Ohio school voucher system to April 2021. Until the crisis hit, lawmakers had been considering possible changes to avoid a looming spike in the number of qualifying locations for the program, meant to help fund private school tuition for students from poor-performing districts and schools. The House and Senate are both expected to allow the extension of professional licenses close to expiring, and align state tax ﬁling deadlines with the federal postponement until July 15. The House and Senate are also expected to propose temporary changes to the state’s open meeting laws to allow public bodies to meet by video conferencing.

A one-time payment He said he’d like to have of $1,200 per person, or $3,000 for a family of four, would go directly to the public. A huge cash infusion for hospitals expecting a ﬂood of COVID-19 patients grew during the talks at the insistence of Sen. Chuck Schumer, the Democratic leader, while Republicans pressed for tens of billions of dollars for additional relief to be delivered through the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the lead federal disaster agency. Democrats said the package would help replace the salary of furloughed workers for four months, rather than the three months ﬁrst proposed. Furloughed workers would get whatever amount a state usually provides for unemployment, plus a one-time $600 add-on. Opening the Senate on Tuesday, McConnell combined optimism about the chances for a deal with frustration at the delays — and a sober view of the crisis at hand. “The urgency and the gravity of this moment cannot be lost on anyone,” he said. On the negotiations, he said: “It’s taken a lot of noise and a lot of rhetoric to get us here.” Still, “we are very close. We are close to a bill that takes our bold Republican framework, integrates further ideas from both parties, and delivers huge progress.” Earlier Tuesday, Trump urged swift action. “Congress must approve the deal, without all of the nonsense, today,” he tweeted. “The longer it takes, the harder it will be to start up our economy.” Democrats pointed to gains for hospitals, additional oversight of the huge industry stabilization fund, and money for cash-strapped states. A companion appropriations package ballooned as well, growing from a $46 billion White House proposal to more than $300 billion, which dwarfs earlier disasters like Hurricane Katrina and Superstorm Sandy combined. To provide transparency, the package is expected to create a new inspector general and oversight board for the corporate dollars, much as was done during the TARP bank rescue, ofﬁcials said. The sense of optimism extended to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., who told CNBC: “I think there is real optimism that we could get something done in the next few hours.” Only Monday, Pelosi introduced a massive Democratic measure with liberal priorities, drawing scorn from Republicans. sonal risk of exposure in conﬁrmed) positive doing businesses for the cases.

We thank you for your continued cooperation and support.” The Gallia case was discovered to be transmitted via community spread and not due to travel, said public health ofﬁcials. “We have strict protocols in place as far as individuals who have been suspected (of having COVID-19),” said Gallia Health Department representative Tyler Schweickart. “At this point, our emergency protocols are basically stating that if individuals are making calls to 911 or they show up to the emergency room and they’re complaining of a cough, a fever, shortness of breath, we’re immediately going into isolation protocols, per se. All individuals are being screened whenever they’re calling into 911 for possible COVID-19 symptoms.” Schweickart said hospitals were being notiﬁed before patients with potential COVID19 symptoms arrive so that they can adequately prepare with protective equipment. “Everybody is wanting to know the age of the individual (Gallia’s recent COVID-19 death), were they immunocompromised or healthy,” said Schweickart. “Something we’re trying to reiterate to people and get out as much as possible and make them understand is that this information is almost irrelevant at this point.

I know many of my readers realize that I am a single person often expressing a point of view that some of my readers may have and some of them may not endorse. My column today relates to President Trump’s referring to the virus we’re combating as the “Chinese virus” or “China virus.” This use has been termed racist and Vivian an unfortunate linguistic choice by Blevins some. A retraction has occurred, but Contributing not all are aware of the retraction, columnist and harm has already been done. I’m a proud American, but I’ve studied graduate-level American history and realize on a pragmatic level that our having civil relationships with countries around the world is critically important to our military security. Economic well-being is also important, and as I examine the plethora of books I own, my clothing, my prescriptions, my appliances, my technology, I realize that China is important to us from this economic perspective. More on China. Six years ago, I traveled to Beijing, Shanghai, and Xian, so I can relate to you some of the racism I experienced while there as a white, tall, blonde, blue-eyed female. I could also regale you with the art, educational, and cultural experiences I had. I had always hungered to know more about China ﬁrst-hand since I was a child at the Central Baptist Church and gave my coins to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering and later read Pearl Buck’s stories of China. Neither is the purpose of this column. Most in our society know not to use the “N word” unless they are among like-minded friends. For those who have yet to understand the damage that word does, I refer you to Countee Cullen’s poem entitled “Incident.” Widely available, short, and easy-to-understand, the poem depicts the impact of being called that word on a young boy travelling in Baltimore. Also, you might consider reading Gloria Naylor’s essay “The Meaning of a Word” which reveals the complexity of the use of the “N word” for those who say, “African Americans use it. Why can’t I?” Back to the “Chinese ﬂu” incident. One of my Facebook friends fears for the safety of her four cousins adopted from China. And with the radical behavior of some, she knows that their very lives could be endangered. Another friend was called “Wop” as a young boy by Anglos in his neighborhood- until he began making stellar achievements as a high school student. My question is the following: Would he have achieved more, less, or the same without the denigrating label which he says meant “without papers.” A former student wrote a rather lengthy essay entitled “Some Wounds Never Heal” in which he details, as a young teen, moving to a neighborhood which was “white collar on steroids.” Dennis W. McCurdy, an attorney, a poet, a songwriter, a journalist and an owner/operator of an art gallery, a music venue, and a vinyl record store outside Pittsburgh, Pa, writes of being referred to as the “hillbilly from the east side.” When attempting one day to enter a conversation with other teens, he was told “by a doctor’s son, now a doc himself, ‘Shut up, pizza face; no one’s talking to you.’” McCurdy ends his essay in a way that I hope speaks for many Americans who have been denigrated because of their body type, race/ethnicity, religion, class, sexual preference, physical/intellectual limitations, or other characteristics considered different and, thus, subject to discrimination: “I am white. I am now considered fully privileged by race and economics. I am still wounded. Even so, I cannot imagine what others, who cannot change their essence to be the chameleon I am, do to endure the hurt. No one wakes up one day and chooses their color, their gender orientation, their sexual preference, their race, or their ethnicity. These immutable characteristics cannot be changed, but these persons can ﬁght and prevailand even while wounded- be of comfort to others.” Vivian B. Blevins. Ph.D., a graduate of The Ohio State University, served as a community college president for 15 years in Kentucky, Texas, California, and Missouri before returning to Ohio to teach telecommunication employees from around the country and students at Edison State Community College and to work with veterans.

We want what we want, we want to do what we want to do, and we resist anything to the contrary. One of my grandchildren came stomping into the house, angry because her cousins weren’t playing the way she wanted them to. She said, “I’m just going to sit here, and I’m not playing with them at all!” “Good idea! Just sit there,” I agreed. “I don’t want to,” she cried. “I want to go play with my cousins!” I have just entered the Twilight Zone, I thought, as I listened to her new protests. Generally speaking, we’re all for doing what we want to do, until someone tells us to do it. How many times have you sat at work thinking, “I really want to be at home?” Suddenly, when conditions dictate that we must be home, we want to be almost anywhere but at home. When we are so busy we can’t keep up, we long for a break. When we are idle, we go stir-crazy.

Hong | AP A countdown display for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics is photographed in Tokyo, on Tuesday. IOC President Thomas Bach has agreed “100%” to a proposal of postponing the Tokyo Olympics for about one year until 2021 because of the coronavirus outbreak, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said Tuesday. TOKYO (AP) — The IOC announced a ﬁrst-of-its-kind postponement of the Summer Olympics on Tuesday, bowing to the realities of a coronavirus pandemic that is shutting down daily life around the globe and making planning for a massive worldwide gathering in July a virtual impossibility. The International Olympic Committee said the Tokyo Games “must be rescheduled to a date beyond 2020, but not later than summer 2021, to safeguard the health of the athletes, everybody involved in the Olympic Games and the international community.” It was an announcement seen as all but a certainty as pressure mounted from nervous athletes, sports organizations and national Olympic committees — all forced to deal with training and qualifying schedules, to say nothing of international anti-doping protocols, that have been ruptured beyond repair. Four-time Olympic hockey champion Hayley Wickenheiser, the ﬁrst IOC member to criticize the body’s reluctance to postpone, called it the “message athletes deserved to hear.” “To all the athletes: take a breath, regroup, take care of yourself and your families. Your time will come,” she wrote on Twitter. IOC President Thomas Bach and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe spoke via phone Tuesday morning, and they, along with a handful of execu- tives from the IOC and Japan’s organizing committee, agreed to make the call to delay games that have been reported to cost upward of $28 billion to stage. Other Olympics — 1916, 1940 and 1944 — have been canceled because of war, but none have ever been postponed for any reason, let alone a renegade virus that has accounted for more than 375,000 cases worldwide, with numbers growing exponentially. The Tokyo Games would still be called the 2020 Olympics, even though they will be held in 2021 — the ﬁrst time the games will be held in an odd-numbered year since the modern era began in 1896. See OLYMPICS | 3B Browns sign Keenum to help Mayfield CLEVELAND (AP) — Case Keenum’s NFL journey is reuniting him with a coach who brought out the best in the quarterback. Keenum ofﬁcially signed his three-year, $18 million contract Tuesday with the Cleveland Browns, who are bringing him in to help mentor Baker Mayﬁeld while also giving new coach Kevin Stefanski a security blanket in case things don’t go as planned. Keenum spent 2017 in Minnesota with Stefanski, who was Vikings quarterback coach at the time. Keenum had a magical season with Stefanski, going 11-3 in 14 starts and getting to the playoffs. He capitalized on the performance by signing a two-year, $36 million contract the following season to start in Denver. The 32-year-old has gone just 7-17 over the past two seasons — he was 1-7 with the Redskins in 2019 — but his experience (62 career starts) along with a deep knowledge of the position and defenses around the league should help Mayﬁeld, who regressed after a strong rookie year. “Case is somebody that’s seen it all and been through it all in his time as an NFL quarterback,” Stefanski said. “The experiences he brings can be great for our team as a whole.

(AP) — Seated inside a simulator in his living room, Denny Hamlin grew thirsty as he virtually raced some of his top rivals. He asked his one allowed crew member — his 7-year-old daughter — to get him a soda and she handed him a bottle of slightly shaken Coca-Cola. Caution. Put the yellow out: Hamlin opened the soda and promptly sprayed his pants and the pricey simulator that cost him north of $40,000 to build. It wasn’t even the funniest moment from NASCAR’s bold attempt to provide fresh content to a nation starving for sports. NASCAR owns the popular iRacing Series and many of its younger drivers are considered among the best online racers in the world. They play against each other and strangers late into the night, ﬁne-tuning the skills needed to land a big ride. NASCAR is suspended until at least May 9 because of the COVID-19 pandemic so the series and iRacing created an invitational to give its drivers something to do. Fox Sports 1 jumped on board, 35 drivers agreed to participate and suddenly there was live sports programming on Sunday. Yes, it was just a pretend race. Sure, any kid with a couple hundred bucks could build a rig, buy an iRacing membership and would have been equally qualiﬁed to compete. And it was a huge gamble for NASCAR, which rolled the dice with the event because it had the See NASCAR | 3B Mike McCarn | AP file The Carolina Panthers are parting ways with quarterback Cam Newton.

He stepped in right away as the team’s starting quarterback and threw for 400 yards in each of his ﬁrst two starts. Newton went on to throw a franchise-record 29,041 yards and 182 touchdowns in nine seasons with the Panthers and ran for 58 touchdowns, the most ever by an NFL quarterback. His best season came in 2015 when he led the Panthers to a 15-1 record in the regular season and an NFC championship when he threw for 3,837 yards and combined for 35 touchdowns en route to earning league MVP honors. But Newton struggled in a 24-10 Super Bowl loss to the Denver Broncos and was widely criticized for not jumping on a loose ball after a strip-sack by Von Miller late in the game. Afterward, a downtrodden Newton answered questions about the loss with abbreviated answers before abruptly walking out of the interview session. Newton became a fan favorite on the ﬁeld in Carolina early in his tenure, endearing himself to young fans by pretending to rip apart his jersey like Superman during touchdown celebrations and then giving the football away to young fans. On the ﬁeld, he used his chiseled 6-foot-5, 240-pound frame to run over defenders in Carolina’s zone-read offense and his strength and elusiveness to turn almost certain sacks into runs for ﬁrst downs. But during his tenure in Carolina he was hit more than any quarterback in NFL history — which may have taken a toll on him physically. He had surgery for a partially torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder last offseason after struggling to throw the ball more than 20 yards downﬁeld in the second half of the 2018 season. He returned to the ﬁeld last summer in training camp, but injured his foot in the third preseason game at New England. He battled back to start the ﬁrst two regular-season games, but it was evident he wasn’t the same player and was eventually placed on injured reserve where he had surgery for a Lisfranc fracture. He lost his last eight starts for the Panthers. Questions remain about Newton’s health moving forward, which could limit his options in free agency especially with doctors currently unable to put players through medical examinations because of the coronavirus pandemic. “They could’ve did this two weeks ago,” tweeted former Panthers wide receiver Torrey Smith. “Terrible timing for a Qb.” �CLASSIFIEDS 2B Wednesday, March 25, 2020 Daily Sentinel LEGAL NOTICE SHERIFF'S SALE OF REAL ESTATE In the State of Ohio.

The decision offers a sense of relief for the 11,000 or so potential Olympians from more than 200 countries, who no longer have to press forward with training under nearimpossible conditions, unsure of when, exactly, they need to be ready — and for what. “Thankful to ﬁnally have some clarity regarding The Olympic Games. A huge decision but I think the right one for sure,” British sprinter Adam Gemili said on Twitter. “Time to regain, look after each other during this difﬁcult period and go again when the time is right!” One reason the IOC took longer to make the decision was because it wanted to ﬁgure out logistics. It will be a daunting challenge. Many of the arenas, stadiums and hotels are under contract for a games held from July 24 to August 9. Remaking those arrangements is doable, but will come at a cost. There are also considerations beyond the price tag. Among them: The $1 billion-plus the IOC was to receive from NBC, the millions in smaller athlete endorsement contracts that are now in limbo, the budgets of the individual national Olympic committees, to name a few. There’s also the matter of the international sports schedule. Nearly all 33 sports on the Olympic program have key events, including world championships, on the docket for 2021. Perhaps the best example of what a disruption this can cause would come from track.

But for weeks, it was becoming increasingly clear that pressing on with a July 24 starting date was no longer a choice. Just about every sport across the globe has suspended play in the wake of the pandemic. The worldwide economy is faltering and people are increasingly being told it’s not safe to congregate in large groups or, in some cases, even to leave their homes. Gyms are closed across America. Holding Olympic trials in a matter of months was becoming untenable. Olympic committees in Canada and Australia were saying they either would not, or could not, send a team to Tokyo in July. World Athletics and the three biggest sports in the United States — swimming, track and gymnastics — were calling for a postpone- his virtual Chevrolet into everything possible on a simulator he usually uses to practice driving Indy cars and sports cars. Many drivers used their social media channels to post pictures or stream their experience, and Alex Bowman live tweeted the event, including updates on eating a crustable, taking a bathroom break and finding his dog in his simulator seat. NASCAR favorite Tim Dugger played an online pre-race show, the invocation was done remotely and recording artist Dylan Scott sang the national anthem while standing in front of what appeared to be his garage door in Nashville, Tennessee. Fox had a camera on Clint Bowyer as the in-race reporter, and he wasn’t very good. “Guys, I let you down. Heck, I let myself down. I let my fans down. I had sponsors in the stands, praying for a good showing, and I end up wrecking our Mobil 1 Wednesday, March 25, 2020 3B ment. As recently as Sunday, the IOC was saying it would take up to four weeks to reach a decision. Four weeks ended up being two days. The decision came only a few hours after local organizers said the torch relay would start as planned on Thursday. It was expected to start in northeastern Fukushima prefecture, but with no torch, no torchbearers and no public. Those plans also changed. The ﬂame will be stored and displayed in Fukushima. Like everything else in the Olympic world, its next move will be determined at a later date. “I’m thrilled for the athletes,’ Bob Bowman, who used to coach Michael Phelps and now works with other Olympic hopefuls, told The Associated Press. “That’s what this is all about at the end of the day, and really the world that gets to share in their journey and be a part of it. Now we can have a real Olympics that is healthy and fair.” Ford Mustang,” Bowyer said on live TV. “I think the real takeaway is, obviously, I need a lot more practice.” It was a pretty sloppy race and although Hamlin beat Dale Earnhardt Jr. coming off the final turn to win the 31st iRacing event of his career, NASCAR’s superstars were not the show. This was instead a chance for the likes of Timmy Hill, Garrett Smithley, Ty Majeski, Chase Briscoe and Parker Kligerman. The little guys got some of the attention for a change — Hill was interviewed online by his wife after the race — and the fans loved every moment. Hamlin has thrown himself into the project by organizing nightly practice sessions, setting odds for the race and encouraging his fellow drivers to participate. He was a Virginia short track racer big into gaming. He attended the Daytona 500 as Earnhardt’s guest — a friendship born in the online racing community — before he signed a contract to drive in NASCAR. Hamlin had not been on his rig for some time, but got the bug when everything came to a halt during the fight against the coronavirus. Plus, he saw it as an opportunity for the racing community to still create content for fans and sponsors. “I think it’s a success no matter what. People are talking about it,” Hamlin said. “If we got five new fans that were just sitting at home watching TV that thought it was exciting and are willing to tune in next week or willing to tune in to a NASCAR race or go to a NASCAR race because they got introduced to racing by iRacing, it’s a success.” Bowyer said it felt good just to have some fun during trying times. “With everything going on in the country right now, I hope the fans were satisfied and I hope they got their minds off of things for a little bit,” Bowyer said. “We will be back.” Browns From page 1B system having played in it under coach (Gary) Kubiak when he broke into the league in Houston, and obviously I have experience coaching him with the Vikings. “I’m really excited about bringing Case the person into this group. He’s the son of a football coach, he’s a grinder, he’s a gym rat, so I think he’ll ﬁt perfectly into the mentality we’re trying to build.” The Browns, one of the NFL’s most active teams in free agency last week, also ofﬁcially announced the signings of return specialist Jojo Natson and cornerback Donovan Olumba. Keenum and Stefanski made a memorable connection three years ago in Minnesota. Keenum had spent the previous two seasons with the Rams. He signed a one-year deal with the Vikings and had his ﬁnest season, completing 67 percent of his passes for 3,457 yards, 22 touchdowns and only seven interceptions. He led the Vikings to a divisional-round playoff win when he connected with Stefon Diggs on a 61-yard TD pass as time expired to beat the New Orleans Saints. Keenum’s excited about being back with Stefanski. “Coach Stefanski, I can’t say enough good things about him. I love him to death,: Keenum said. “Great friend, his family is incredible. “I’m really, really excited he’s got an opportunity to go and lead an organization as great as the Cleveland Browns. It will be his ﬁrst shot as a head coach and I’m excited to be a part of what he’s going to build there.” Mayﬁeld took a step back last season. He struggled with his accuracy, timing, mechanics and failed to build off his ﬁrst season, when he broke Peyton Manning’s league rookie record for TD passes. Keenum said Mayﬁeld has already contacted him. “Baker reached out as soon as the news broke, which really meant a lot to me,” Keenum said. “I’ve got a lot of respect for him for what he’s done on the ﬁeld and off the ﬁeld, too. First and foremost, I know my role coming in. That’s another great positive for me. I’m going to be ready to play. I feel like I’ve played at a high level for the last three years.” Classifieds Amy Carter Best Deal New & Used OH-70176174 MARK PORTER FORD Home of the Car Fairy OH-70004516 www.markporterauto.com Sheriff’s Sale of Real Estate The State of Ohio, Meigs County Product Specialist �� !�� !� �� amycarter@markporterauto.com CASE NUMBER 19CV055 Bruner Land Company, Inc. , Plaintiff vs Derak L.
