Patriots Expect LT Will Campbell to Return to Practice as 21-Day Window Opens

His eligibility this week triggers the roster clock ahead of the regular-season finale.

Overview

  • Head coach Mike Vrabel said he expects rookie left tackle Will Campbell, out since Week 12 with an MCL sprain, to practice this week.
  • Starting the return-to-practice period initiates a 21-day window in which the Patriots must activate him to play again this season.
  • To face the Dolphins in Week 18, Campbell would need to be activated by Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, and his availability is still to be determined.
  • Vederian Lowe has filled in at left tackle over the past four games, surrendering just one sack while handling virtually every snap.
  • New England has secured the AFC East title, and a win over Miami combined with a Denver loss would clinch the AFC’s No. 1 seed and a first-round bye.
