A.J. Brown (ankle/knee) to join Pats in Germany
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown, sidelined with ankle and knee injuries, is expected to travel to Germany for Week 10's game against the Lions, indicating a potential return if he progresses well in practice, though he remains unlikely to play in Week 9 against the Packers.
- Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson suffered a knee injury in Week 9 and is expected to miss multiple weeks; rookie Brevyn Spann-Ford is likely to fill in but is considered a boom-or-bust option.
- Jaguars bolstered their defense by acquiring Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis in a trade, adding to previous defensive acquisitions as they prepare for the NFL trade deadline.
- Cardinals quarterback Gardner Minshew could miss Week 10 due to an elbow injury, with rookie Carson Beck poised to start if Minshew is sidelined; meanwhile, WR Michael Wilson suffered a season-ending neck injury.
- Packers running back Josh Jacobs will undergo surgery for a fractured finger and may face an extended absence, with Green Bay relying on backups MarShawn Lloyd, Pierre Strong, and Kaleb Johnson in the interim.
