Patriots Will Be Without Key Starter Vs. Bills
The New England Patriots will meet the Buffalo Bills and they will be without a key starter. The team made an official statement and confirmed that Isaiah Wynn is out for the game.
New England needs each and every player on the field. It’s an important game for the Patriots. They have already lost a game to the Bills. However, they have one win against the team, too. Wynn is dealing with an ankle injury. His condition is really serious and he wasn’t able to suit up for the game.
Talented Wynn is out and Justin Herron will step in as a replacement. In his two seasons in the NFL, Herron has started 10 games. Head coach Belichick respects versatile players and he is an excellent fit for the Patriots. Belichick will find great use for him at tackle. If Herron fails to make an impact, Belichick will probably go with Mike Onwenu or Yodny Cajuste.
New England Patriots to win without key starter
In the win over the Bills, the Patriots relied on their rushing attack. Players tried to win the game in bad weather. Guess what… They will have to play in bad weather again.
Patriots players have to overcome a big obstacle in Saturday’s game. Wynn is out, and so are Jalen Mills and Shaun Wade. It’s a rather tricky situation for the Patriots. J.C. Jackson, Myles Bryant, Justin Bethel, and Joejuan Williams are here to make things easier for the Patriots.
Patriots fans are also concerned for Kyle Dugger. He was nowhere to be seen in Wednesday and Thursday practice sessions. The team listed him as limited participant. Dugger didn’t join the team in the loss to the Miami Dolphins.
The Patriots have elevated defensive back D’Angelo Ross, cornerback De’Vante Bausby, defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale, and wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson from the practice squad. These players should be available for the game.
NFL analysts are still confident about the game. New England has plenty of talent on the field and players have great chemistry to work with. Mac Jones will have his first playoff game on Saturday. Great, huh?
