Patriots vs. Commanders game day roster: Offensive depth will be tested in Week 9

The New England Patriots’ offense has had some major issues this season, and things are not getting any easier. The unit, after all, will be down three starting players compared to last week’s loss to the Miami Dolphins: wide receivers Kendrick Bourne and DeVante Parker are not part of the game day roster against the Washington Commanders in Week 9, and neither is left tackle Trent Brown.

Bourne, of course, is out for the year with a torn ACL; how long the team will be without its top perimeter receiver (Parker) and blindside protector (Brown) remains to be seen.
