Patriots Injury Report: 13 Players Limited In First Practice Of Texans Week

The New England Patriots had 20 limited players prior to the game against the Baltimore Ravens. The situation seems to be improving as the team listed 13 players with limited action following Wednesday’s practice. New England is getting ready for another win. Most NFL experts predict a big W for the Patriots in their Week 11 game against the Houston Texans.

The team struggled with injuries and they also had to deal with a coronavirus outbreak in October. There are no positive cases on the roster now, but the Patriots are still plagued with injuries. There’s some good news for all the Patriots fans out there.

Patriots to play against Texans with a healthier roster

New England removed five players from their injury report. This gives fans a ray of hope. Wide receiver N’Keal Harry, cornerback Jonathan Jones and safeties Kyle Dugger, Terrence Brooks, and Cody Davis were full participants in the Patriots’ first practice of Week 11. This doesn’t change the fact that 13 players saw limited action Wednesday.

LB Ja’Whaun Bentley (groin)
DT Adam Butler (shoulder)
K Nick Folk (back)
CB Stephon Gilmore (knee)
DT Lawrence Guy (shoulder, elbow, and knee)
LB Terez Hall (shoulder)
RB Damien Harris (ankle, chest)
TE Ryan Izzo (hamstring, hand)
G Shaq Mason (calf)
DE John Simon (elbow)
G Joe Thuney (ankle)
DE Deatrich Wise (knee, hand)
OT Isaiah Wynn (ankle)

The Patriots added Butler and Hall to the injury report for the first time. NFL teams don’t have to announce injuries to practice unit players. But Hall earned his promotion to the active roster after starting each of the Patriots list two games. He was starting as a replacement for Bentley.

Gilmore missed the last three games, and he is still a limited participant. The Patriots have been adding Izzo to their injury report in the last two weeks, but this time he is dealing with a hand injury.

New England stands at 4-5 record at this point of the season, and Houston is 2-7. Head coach Bill Belichick has the perfect winning formula for his team. It’s time for a big W, and Patriots fans are already celebrating it.
