Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola is recovering from a pair of operations that may impact the start of his 2016 season.
Amendola underwent surgery to repair the left knee that gave him considerable trouble late last season. He also had a bone spur in his ankle removed, according to a source. Both surgeries occurred early this offseason.
It’s far too early to know when Amendola will return at full strength, and the Patriots will not rush him back. There is hope Amendola will be ready in time for training camp, which begins July 27, but there’s no guarantee the 30-year-old will be good to go for Week 1.
