Isaiah Bolden is on the road to recovery after getting carted off the field during the New England Patriots’ preseason game against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday night. The rookie cornerback was knocked out by friendly fire in the fourth quarter, and subsequently had to spend a night in a hospital.
The 23-year-old was released on Sunday morning, and able to fly back to Foxborough with his teammates. On Monday, head coach Bill Belichick gave another encouraging update on his injury status.
“I talked to Isaiah yesterday. He’s in good spirits,” Belichick said during an appearance on WEEI’s The Greg Hill Show.
