The New England Patriots are riding high after picking up their first signature win of the Drake Maye era. However, knocking off the NFL's last unbeaten squad doesn't come without sacrifice, which may come in the form of star cornerback Christian Gonzalez.
Gonzalez was reportedly "limited at best" in New England's second Week 6 practice, according to MassLive's Mark Daniels. The lack of participation is concerning for several reasons, but perhaps none more so than that the 2024 All-Pro recently returned from an extensive absence.
Daniels ponders whether Gonzalez, who's been dealing with a hamstring injury since late July, suffered a setback in New England's 23-20 win over the Buffalo Bills.
