After falling short against the New York Giants in the preseason opener, the New England Patriots got the bounce-back victory in Friday’s clash with the visiting Carolina Panthers.
At the end of the game, the scoreboard read 20-10 in the Patriots’ favor, but it’s hard celebrating after watching rookie receiver Tyquan Thornton go down with an injury.
The No. 50 overall pick of the 2022 NFL draft left the game in the second half and never returned. He was immediately ruled out of the game with a shoulder injury, which is rarely ever good news.
