1.) That's how I initially read the headline. If you google John Ross Covid this is one of the first things that appear:

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross has left training camp to care for his wife and sone, who both tested positive for Covid-19, per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. Ross wasn’t at camp yesterday and will likely be put on the Reserve/Covid-19 while he is away. A timetable for his return is, of course, unknown.
2.) Who really cares if it's wife or the mother of his child? I'm not sure how this distinction is at all relevant the discussion.
I think it's a huge distinction. If it's his wife or someone he is currently in a relationship with, that's one thing. If it's a girl he had a kid with in college and doesn't see anymore except when he picks up his kid, that's something else. Now obviously, his kid is his kid regardless. Here's what I get when I google him...
