Patriots QB Cam Newton is expected to rejoin the team at practice on Thursday, according to ESPN's Field Yates.
ESPN noted that returning Thursday would put Newton on track to start Sunday vs. the Broncos.
Newton tested positive for COVID-19 on Saturday, Oct. 3. He was subsequently put on COVID-19/reserve list.
The former No. 1 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft had led New England to a 2–1 start this season while throwing for 714 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. He's added 35 rushes for 149 yards and four touchdowns.
