Patriots injury analysis after Bills win in Week 4

Key Points:

• The New England Patriots secured a 29-26 victory over the Buffalo Bills, improving their record to 2-2 and gaining momentum after a challenging start to the season.
• Several players sustained injuries during the game, but most appear to be minor and unlikely to significantly impact the team moving forward, with wide receiver Mack Hollins being the only player whose status remains uncertain due to a calf injury.
• Key injured players like fullback Reggie Gilliam, defensive end Dre’Mont Jones, quarterback Drake Maye, tight end Eli Raridon, cornerback Charles Woods, and running back Rhamondre Stevenson all returned to play or showed no serious issues after brief absences.
• The Patriots continue to manage a growing injury list, including three players already ruled out for the game, but potential activations from injured reserve and practice squads could bolster the roster in the coming weeks.
• The team prepares to host the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, with practice and injury reports early in the week expected to clarify player availability and health status.
