As the New England Patriots approach their first preseason game on Friday against the Washington Commanders, head coach Mike Vrabel provided injury updates for some key players who’ve been banged up during training camp.
On the defensive side, cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis III have missed some time throughout camp. Neither player practiced on Monday and are not expected to participate in the Patriots’ joint practice with the Commanders on Wednesday, according to Vrabel.
Gonzalez injured his hamstring last week and is expected to be out for some time. However, the hope is he’ll be ready for the regular season.
