Patriots starting OL explains reason for limited OTAs participation

New England Patriots starting right guard Mike Onwenu revealed that he has been rehabbing from a hand injury, which has limited him at OTAs practice this spring.

With Onwenu working through an injury, the Patriots haven't been able to get a full sense of what their top combination on the right side of the offensive line looks like. The team is expected to start Onwenu at right guard and veteran offensive lineman Morgan Moses at right tackle.

Onwenu played in all 17 games last season, marking the third year in a row that he has played and started in every single contest.
