Patriots Rule Out LG Jared Wilson for Week 4; Christian Gonzalez Questionable

Ben Brown is set to replace the rookie, ending the offensive line’s three-game run with the same five starters.

Overview

  • Coach Mike Vrabel ruled out starting left guard Jared Wilson (ankle/knee) for Sunday after the rookie logged all 205 snaps through three games.
  • Vrabel said his confidence in Ben Brown is high, with the veteran expected to start at left guard against Carolina.
  • Cornerback Christian Gonzalez (hamstring) is listed as questionable, and The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports he is expected to make his season debut.
  • The Patriots signed veteran guard Royce Newman to the practice squad this week to bolster interior depth.
  • Edge rusher K’Lavon Chaisson (knee) was a full participant Friday and is questionable, while right guard Mike Onwenu (shoulder) is questionable in what Vrabel described as a procedural listing.
