Patriots to put A.J. Brown on injured reserve
The Patriots are going to have to bounce back from their season-opening loss to the Seahawks without the help of wide receiver A.J. Brown.
Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain in his Patriots debut on Wednesday night and Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the team is going to place him on their injured reserve list. Brown will miss at least the next four games before he will be eligible to return to action for New England.
The Patriots will host the Steelers in Week 2 and then head on the road for games against the Jaguars and Bills. Week 5 will bring them back home for a game against the Raiders. esporist.com
Romeo Doubs, who had a crucial drop in Seattle, will now be at the top of the receiver depth chart for the Patriots. Mack Hollins, Pop Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism are the other wideouts on the 53-man roster.

Toppserien-klubben Røa i stor økonomisk krise – trenger millionbeløp på to dager
Røa Fotball Elite er i kritisk pengenød og må ha inn 2 millioner kroner for å overleve etter helgen.
Det avslørte styreleder Harald Nickelsen til TV 2 før fredagens kamp mot Vålerenga.
– Status er at vi sliter. Da får vi skylde på oss selv. Vi har ikke vært flinke nok til å nå ut med budskapet vårt, sa Nickelsen.
Det ble i sommer kjent at Røa slet økonomisk.
«Klubben står nå uten tilstrekkelig støtte fra sponsorer, investorer og næringsliv til å møte kravene som stilles til videre satsing på øverste nivå», het det i en pressemelding.
Nickelsen sier at styret skal ta en avgjørelse om fremtiden på søndag. Han er klar på at den eneste utveien kan bli å finne en klubb som kan ta over lisensen.
– På Røa har vi ikke noe næringsliv, vi har noen butikker som også lever fra hånd til munn. Vi må nok dessverre kaste inn håndkleet ser det ut som, med mindre det dukket opp et par millioner fra oven i løpet av helgen, sa Nickelsen. (NTB)
Jets Rule Out Ossai, Ponds Doubtful
The Jets will be without linebacker Joseph Ossai and wide receiver Tim Patrick for their matchup against the Titans. Head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Ossai's week-to-week status due to a foot injury, while Patrick was ruled out with a groin issue.
Rookie cornerback D'Angelo Ponds (calf) and kick returner Kene Nwangwu (back) join Ponds in the doubtful category, leaving the Jets short-handed on defense and special teams.
Browns will start two rookie OLs with Teven Jenkins ruled out
Deshaun Watson's first start since 2024 just got a little bit tougher.
Head coach Todd Monekn told reporters on Friday that right guard Teven Jenkins is out for Sunday's season opener against the Jaguars. Rookie third-round pick Austin Barber will start in Jenkins' place.
Jenkins (back) was limited on Wednesday and did not practice on Thursday or Friday.
“I’m not getting into the specifics, he’s just not able to go this week,” Monken said in his press conference.
As for Barber, Monken said he feels great about the rookie stepping in to play.
“We see the talent there, and he needs to play,” Monken said.
The Browns will be starting two rookies on their offensive line, with first-round pick Spencer Fano lining up at left tackle.
“Just the way they’ve practiced, just what I’ve seen every day,” Monken said of what gives him confidence in the young OLs. “That’s all you can go by, is what you see every day. And I haven’t seen anything to the contrary that would make me believe that they’re not going to play really, really well and confidently.”
As noted by Browns radio play-by-play announcer Andrew Siciliano, this is the first time since 1990 that the Browns will deploy an entirely new offensive line since 1990.
For Cleveland’s other injuries, rookie center Parker Brailsford (thumb) is questionable. Linebacker Carson Schwesinger (shoulder) and defensive tackle Maliek Collins (quad) are off the report and are expected to play.
