The New England Patriots are set to take on Chicago Bears this week. As they look to bounce back from their disappointing loss last week, a win over the Bears would feel really good.
Unfortunately, the Patriots enter this week with a rather lengthy injury report to monitor.
As released by New Englandthe team has 10 players who were either limited participants or did not participate during Wednesday’s practice.
There were three players who did not participate at all during training. Those players were safety Kyle Dugger, linebacker Christian Elliss and running back JaMycal Hasty.
As for the seven players who were limited during practice, their names are defensive end Keion White, linebacker Sione Takitaki, defensive tackle Jaquelin Roy, guard Layden Robinson, safety Marte Mapu, tackle Vederian Lowe and defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale.
Obviously, that’s a very long list of players with a few that are important key players for the Patriots.
Thankfully, Drake Maye is good to go and there are no questions as to whether or not he will play. Most of their key players look ready to play this week.
Hopefully they will get some good news ahead of game day. Having a handful of these guys available would be a good step in the right direction for New England.
It will be fun to see the matchup between Maye and Caleb Williams at the quarterback position. Both players are extremely skilled signal callers and will be quarterbacks that are compared throughout their careers.
Expect to hear more damage news over the next few days. While the Patriots are far from a contender this season, they will still compete and look to improve and develop throughout the rest of the year. To do that, they need to be healthy.
