AJ Brown questionable for Patriots vs. Jets clash
17 Oct
Summary
- AJ Brown's return window opened, making him questionable for Sunday's game.
- The Patriots' offense struggled significantly without Brown for four games.
- New England's offense has shown recent momentum, with two strong recent wins.
The New England Patriots have opened the 21-day window for wide receiver AJ Brown to return from injured reserve, though his participation in the upcoming Sunday game against the New York Jets is currently questionable. Brown sustained an ankle injury during the season opener against the Seattle Seahawks, forcing him onto the injured reserve list.
Following Brown's injury, the Patriots' offense, especially their passing game, faltered through the subsequent three games against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Jacksonville Jaguars. This period saw struggles in yardage and an increase in turnovers, including a blowout loss to the Jaguars.
Recently, the Patriots' offense has regained momentum. This resurgence includes an unexpected victory over the Buffalo Bills and a commanding win against the Las Vegas Raiders, where quarterback Drake Maye demonstrated strong performance with multiple touchdown passes. Given this offensive groove and the upcoming Thursday game, the team may opt for a cautious approach with Brown's return, potentially holding him out until Week 7 against the Chicago Bears.
