Patriots vs. Jets Wednesday injury report: Four ruled out, including Rhamondre Stevenson

"Best two-way player in the league, if you ask me. Guy does everything you ask of him." Patriots defensive tackle Khyiris Tonga is turning heads in his new role as a part-time fullback.

The Patriots are accepting “no shortcuts” in preparation for their home stretch.

A practice squad pickup in late August, Cory Durden is quietly becoming an important piece along the Patriots’ defensive line.

Patriots vs. Jets Monday injury report: Austin Hooper in concussion protocol, 14 project as limited

"I made a decision to go for it. I trust our players, and they came through. They made me look good."

The Patriots' streak of holding opposing running backs under 50 yards is over. Sean Tucker goes for 18 and is now at 53 on the day.

Drake Maye giveth, Drake Maye taketh away. Threw the ball away on the previous play in a similar situation, this time he tries to hit Mack Hollins and the ball is picked in the end zone.

Drake Maye is unreal. Converts on 3rd-and-14 with a deep shot to Mack Hollins.

The Patriots scored touchdowns on the final play of the first quarter and the final play of the second quarter.

Patriots’ goal line sequence: Kneel to burn clock Stuffed run Stuffed run Touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs If it works, it works.

Emeka Egbuka has 3 catches for 76 yards and a touchdown with 9 minutes left in the second quarter. The Patriots' zone coverage is looking leaky so far on this possession.

Mike Vrabel, to Scott Zolak on 98.5 The Sports Hub, on WR Kyle Williams during his weekly pre-game interview:

Already entering the game down Rhamondre Stevenson, Terrell Jennings is now also questionable to return to the game with a knee injury. He left the game after a 1-yard carry with 4:40 left in the first quarter, showing visible discomfort on the sidelines.

Kyle Williams takes a Drake Maye pass 72 yards for the touchdown.

The one time I visited the Oktoberfest I saw German native speakers who couldn’t express their thoughts so coherently. 10/10 from me.

Recent waiver claim Caleb Murphy is set to make his Patriots debut on Sunday.

The Patriots pulled no surprises out of their proverbial hat when it comes to their inactives list against the Buccaneers.

The same thing happened last week against the Patriots and Drake Maye.

Mike Gundy approved.

The Patriots will receive a $58,823.53 credit on their 2026 salary cap because Rhamondre Stevenson will not earn at least of his 16 LTBE active roster bonuses this season.

All things considered, this might be the funniest moment in American history.

CB Carlton Davis III was telling teammates and coaches today that it will be strange returning to Tampa Bay, as he hasn’t been back since the Buccaneers traded him in March of 2024. Here is CBs coach Justin Hamilton on what Davis (9 starts, 94.7% of snaps) has brought to NE:

The Bears had some DUDES at that position.

Oof

The Patriots have internalized an old Bill Belichick mantra while gearing up for a late-season run.

Initial observations from Patriots’ 24-23 win over Falcons

Patriots vs. Falcons recap: Pats overcome a sloppy performance to win 24-23.

After leaving the game with a head injury in the fourth quarter, Patriots CB Christian Gonzalez was back on the field for postgame handshakes – a positive sign.

The Patriots inch closer to the No. 1 seed in the AFC, and are now tied with the Colts at 7-2. They only miss out on the top spot due to their inferior conference record (4-2 vs. 6-1).

The Patriots lost wide receiver Kayshon Boutte to a hamstring injury against the Falcons.

"It’s not just that it’s innovative. It’s not just that it’s efficient. It’s not just that it’s been successful for a long, long time. He knows it like the back of his hand. He knows every snake in the grass." – Falcons DC Jeff Ulbrich on Josh McDaniels and the Patriots offense earlier this week.

Patriots DT Khyiris Tonga enters the game on 3rd-and-1 as a fullback, and Terrell Jennings gains 6 yards running up the gut behind him.

Efton Chism is back, and more notes on the Patriots' inactives against the Falcons.

Before trading Kyle Dugger to the Steelers, the Patriots decided to restructure the veteran safety's contract.

You better grab a second cup of coffee this morning, because it's a LONG column today.

Sunday Patriots Notes: Josh McDaniels is proving himself a home run hire; Kayshon Boutte, non-traditional deep threat; Making sense of the Kyle Dugger and Keion White trades; And a lot more.

Sunday's game between the Patriots and Falcons will be an interior pressure showdown featuring the top three defensive tackles in pressure rate (via @doug-analytics.bsky.social).
