Amid a series of Saturday roster moves, the New England Patriots activated offensive tackle Trent Brown off injured reserve and placed linebacker Jamie Collins on injured reserve, as first reported by ESPN’s Field Yates.
Brown, 28, saw his 21-day return window open as preparations for the Cleveland Browns got underway in Foxborough. The Super Bowl LIII champion and March trade acquisition had exited seven snaps into the season opener due to a calf strain and was officially moved to IR in October.
Collins, 32, had been listed as doubtful on the final injury report of Week 10 after missing three consecutive practices due to an ankle injury.
