First reported by Field Yates, the Patriots have placed Rex Burkhead, Isaiah Wynn, and Carl Davis on IR.
After all but confirming his season was over this past week on social media, Burkhead’s movement to the reserve list isn’t surprising, Nor is Wynn’s, he also picked up a knock also in last Sunday’s game.

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.

A busy end to the day as the Patriots are promoting UDFA RB J.J. Taylor to the active roster in addition to placing RB Damien Harris on IR. The biggest news here is that the Patriots streak of UDFA’s making the roster continues.
Harris was one of the potential candidates I projected for IR in last week’s Sunday supplement, he injured his finger during camp which required surgery. Although not overly surprising, this is disappointing as I’d hoped to see Harris finally get his opportunity with the team, that’s now on hold for the time being.
Both DT Beau Allen and Harris will miss at least three weeks until they’re eligible to return.
