Another Patriots star is absent from latest practice ahead of Seahawks opener
Key Points:
- The New England Patriots are preparing for their Week 1 game against the Seattle Seahawks in the first-ever Wednesday Night Football matchup but face key absences, including running back TreVeyon Henderson due to an ankle injury.
- Defensive tackle Christian Barmore was absent from practice without explanation, raising concerns about the Patriots' defensive strength against the Seahawks' high-powered offense.
- Barmore's presence alongside Milton Williams has been a strong defensive pairing, and his potential absence could significantly weaken the Patriots' defensive line.
- The Patriots are under pressure to perform in a Super Bowl rematch against the Seahawks, but missing key players like Barmore and Henderson could hinder their chances of securing a win.
- Backup players may struggle to fill the gaps left by these absences, potentially giving the Seahawks a greater advantage in the season opener.
