The same cast remains on the report from yesterday with just one addition, Shaq Mason, who was limited today with a calf injury. Although they still practiced, I’ll be keeping an eye on Wynn and Mason for tomorrow’s game projections, but should be good to go for Sunday.

Cody Davis was the only non-participant who may still be dealing with the after-effects of a knock he picked up late on against the Raiders. New to the limited crew is Sony Michel, we’ll see how they all progress throughout the week.

Patriots vs Raiders – Player Ups & Downs

by

Paul Rutherford-USA TODAY Sports

The Patriots improved to 2-1 with a 36-20 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in an empty Gillette Stadium on Sunday. Today is a good day, more ups than downs to discuss, that’s for sure.

Ups ⬆️

Rex Burkhead
Who else could be could be the first name on the ups list? Burkhead found the endzone three times and was vital in the team’s win yesterday. In the offseason, there was discussion that he could be a candidate to leave the roster ahead of the new campaign, but after signing a new deal, he’s shown his worth once again in one of the best performances of his career.

Patriots GameDay Supplement 9/27

Many questions have begun to be answered about what Patriots football will look like this season, and today, we’ll find out even more. Here’s your Game Day supplement for all of the latest news ahead of this afternoon’s Week 3 encounter against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Roster Moves

Main Roster
OL James Ferentz (Signed from PS)
DL Nick Thurman (Promoted from PS)
WR Isaiah Zuber (Promoted from PS)
*Main roster promotions will revert back to PS after the game

Placed On Injured Reserve
C David Andrews
LB Josh Uche

With the news coming in yesterday that David Andrews and Josh Uche had been placed on IR, a couple of inevitable PS promotions have taken place. Firstly James Ferentz was signed to the 53-man roster instead of being promoted, which means he won’t automatically revert back to the PS after today’s game. Ferentz along with Hjalte Froholdt are candidates to start at center in the absence of Andrews, although, don’t be surprised if there is some movement across the whole offensive front.

Nick Thurman is called up to the main roster for the second-straight week and UDFA Isaiah Zuber also gets the nod, hopefully this isn’t an indication that Edelman or Harry can’t play.

Patriots placing C David Andrews & LB Josh Uche on IR, promote three from practice squad

by

First reported by Field Yates, the Patriots have placed C David Andrews and LB Josh Uche on IR.

Both players were ruled out of Sunday’s game and now will miss at least three weeks. Andrews is a huge loss for the offensive front, there was some discussion that Andrews may attempt to snap using his left hand, but now he heads for a break on the sidelines.

Uche, who has been on and off injury reports since camp will now have an extended period of time to recover from a foot injury. Frustrating, but hopefully he’ll be ready to get involved when he returns.
