The COVID-19 outbreak in the Tyrone football squad twice delayed the 2021 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship semi-final against Kerry. Meyler later disclosed that he was one of the players who had tested positive for COVID-19 (despite having received two vaccinations), though he was asymptomatic.[3]

Two of Tyrone's Sam Maguire heroes have spoken publicly about the Covid-19 crisis that ripped through their squad earlier this summer and threatened their participation in the All-Ireland series. Niall Morgan and Conor Meyler disclosed how joint-managers Feargal Logan and Brian Dooher told the group of plans to withdraw from their rescheduled semi-final against Kerry because of the health implications… Both the netminder and Tyrone's play-anywhere No 10 were among those to test positive for the virus… Even though he was 'double-jabbed', Meyler was among those to contract Covid after the virus got into his own family home. 'I had no symptoms, and I wouldn't have known only I was made go for a PCR test', the Omagh clubman explained… Morgan also tested positive, having initially thought he was merely suffering from hay fever.
