Will Campbell Exits Packers Game With Knee Issue, Says He’s ‘Good’

His postgame update reduces immediate alarm but the Patriots will lean on rookie depth while health questions for other starters develop

Overview

  • The Patriots’ starting left tackle Will Campbell left Sunday’s loss to the Green Bay Packers with a knee injury and did not return to the game.
  • Campbell told reporters after the game that he felt “good,” described being “leg‑whipped,” and said he would have returned if the contest had been competitive.
  • Multiple teammates also exited with injuries in the same game, including running back Rhamondre Stevenson and center Ben Brown, and coach Mike Vrabel offered no firm updates on their status.
  • Rookie tackles Caleb Lomu and Dametrious Crownover are the listed backups and Lomu finished the Packers game, creating immediate reliance on inexperienced depth to protect quarterback Drake Maye.
  • Campbell’s 2025 Grade 3 MCL sprain and the Patriots’ 5‑4 standing make short‑term availability important for next week’s trip to London to face the Lions’ strong pass rush and for the team’s run toward a Wild Card spot.
