Patriots Injury Report: 8 Players Limited in Practice Wednesday And Thursday

The Patriots had eight players limited in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday as they prepare for their Monday night matchup against the Bills in Buffalo which will likely be crucial for the AFC East and the AFC. New England has some injury report veterans, as well as some new names to the list.

David Andrews (shoulder) and Brandon Bolden (knee) get their first action of the injury report this season. Gunner Olszewski (ankle) has spent some time on the injury report this season but not yet for his ankle.

For the injury report veterans, Trent Brown continues to deal with his calf issue, Nick Folk is limited and questionable every week with his right knee, and Donta Hightower’s ankle has been bothering him for quite some time now. The same goes for Ja’Whuan Bentley’s ribs and Christian Barmore’s knee.

The Pats sit at 8-4 on the year and will have a bye week following Monday’s affair. They lead the division by .5 games, as the Bills are right behind them at 7-4 on the season. The two teams clash again just two weeks after Monday night, in some of the most important games the AFC East has seen in years.
