Patriots vs. Packers: Hoyer Out, Zappe In After Veteran QB Suffers Head Injury

The interesting times for New England Patriots cornerbacks appear to be continuing on Sunday in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

With incumbent starter Mac Jones already on the sidelines as he recovers from a high ankle sprain suffered during the Pats’ Week 3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, 14-year veteran Brian Hoyer got the start in his stead.

However, after only two offensive series in the Pats Week 4 matchup with the Green Bay Packers, Hoyer headed to the blue medical tent for evaluation for a head injury. Shortly thereafter, Hoyer headed to the locker room, giving way to rookie Bailey Zappe entering the game.
