Overview

  • New England downgraded OLB K’Lavon Chaisson (knee) to out on Saturday after he missed Wednesday and Friday practices and was limited Thursday.
  • LB Jahlani Tavai was activated from injured reserve before the 4 p.m. ET deadline and is available after practicing fully all week.
  • DT Milton Williams (ankle) remains questionable following a Thursday DNP and a limited Friday; he traveled to Buffalo, and Ian Rapoport reported the injury is not believed to be significant.
  • Friday’s injury report listed four Patriots as questionable—Williams, Chaisson, Tavai, and CB Carlton Davis III (illness)—with Davis practicing fully late in the week.
  • Williams, a four-year, $104 million addition with five tackles for loss and two sacks, has been central next to Christian Barmore, heightening the impact of his game-time status against Josh Allen.
