Patriots on Upset Alert as Geno Smith Brings a No-INT Streak Into Jets Matchup with Patriots – WTOP News
- On Sunday, the New England Patriots defeated the New York Jets 26-19 at Gillette Stadium, extending their winning streak to three games. Wide receiver A.J. Brown returned to the active lineup after missing four contests on injured reserve.
- Brown had been sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain during New England's Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. After the team designated him to return from injured reserve Wednesday, he participated in limited practices before being activated Saturday.
- In his return, Brown recorded three catches for 27 yards on 10 targets, though he struggled with multiple drops. Patriots quarterback Drake Maye frequently targeted him, but timing remained inconsistent during his debut in front of the home crowd.
- Head coach Mike Vrabel stated, "We have all the confidence in the world in A.J." despite the difficult performance. The team maintained momentum as other pass-catchers stepped up during the victory.
- Facing a quick turnaround, New England travels to play the Chicago Bears on Thursday. Offensive linemen Morgan Moses, Alijah Vera-Tucker, and Ben Brown exited Sunday's game with injuries, complicating the short week ahead.
