The hits keep on coming for the Patriots after their lopsided loss to the Cowboys on Sunday evening.
To add injury to the insult of a 35-point loss to Dallas (the largest margin of defeat for Bill Belichick in his head-coaching career), the Patriots’ defense reportedly will be without its two most impactful players in the weeks ahead.
According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic, rookie cornerback Christian Gonzalez is expected to “miss some time” after dislocating his shoulder during Sunday’s loss against the Cowboys.
Howe added that the reigning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month is still undergoing testing to determine the severity of his injury.
