A Big Munich Test for the Lions and Patriots as Injuries Loom for New England
New England also has Walter Rouse in concussion protocol, leaving Mike Vrabel with more lineup questions after three players were ruled out.
- On Wednesday, the New England Patriots ruled out offensive lineman Ben Brown, cornerback Carlton Davis III, and running back TreVeyon Henderson for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions in Munich, Germany.
- Both Brown and Davis suffered knee injuries during the Patriots' Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers, while Henderson remains sidelined by an illness; replacement guard Walter Rouse entered concussion protocol, compounding the offensive line crisis.
- With leading rusher Rhamondre Stevenson also nursing a knee injury, the Patriots will rely on second-year running back Corey Kiner and Lan Larison to carry the offensive load against Detroit.
- Head coach Mike Vrabel emphasized the need for better pressure recognition, citing "recognition of the pressure and then the ability to block the pressure" as areas for improvement on the 5-4 Patriots.
- The Patriots face the 6-2 Detroit Lions on Sunday at 9:30 a.m. ET in Munich, with Lions coach Dan Campbell focused on preparation rather than international implications.
