Patriots Week 8 injury report: 8 players listed as questionable vs Dolphins
Things are looking much more hopeful for the New England Patriots than they were a week ago in the injury department.
Multiple players returned to practice this week, including linebacker Josh Uche and defensive end Keion White. On Friday, the team officially listed eight players as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins.
New England has been ravaged with injuries since the start of the season, and the team they’ll be fielding against the Dolphins in Week 8 looks significantly different than the one they had when the division rivals last met in Week 2. Most notably, they’ll be without their two best defensive players, rookie cornerback Christian Gonzalez and star pass-rusher Matthew Judon.
Unfortunately for the Patriots, the Dolphins are nearing full strength with both Pro Bowl cornerbacks, Jalen Ramsey and Xavien Howard, listed as questionable to play in the game. All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill and running back Raheem Mostert are also likely to suit up.
Here’s the full injury report for both teams on Friday:
