Patriots LB Matthew Judon gets positive health update on Saturday

Matthew Judon’s season might not be over after all.

The New England Patriots’ star linebacker underwent surgery to repair a torn biceps tendon, and per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, there’s a “good chance” he’ll return before the end of the season.

December seems to be the targeted timetable, according to Rapoport.

Judon potentially returning is a best case scenario for the Patriots, but they’ve got some work to do to still be in the playoff hunt that late in the season. They’re currently sitting at 1-3 with the hardest schedule in the NFL.
