The New England Patriots are preparing to face off against the Miami Dolphins in a pivotal divisional game on Sunday.
For the fifth straight practice, two defensive linemen were absent due to injurys. Deatrich Wise Jr. (foot) and Jaquelin Roy (neck) are doubtful to play Sunday after missing Wednesday’s practice.
Those who were limited were Safety Kyle Dugger (ankle), defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale (elbow), defensive tackle Davon Godchaux (back), safety Marte Mapu (neck), defensive end Keion White (knee), linebacker Anfernee Jennings (knee), offensive tackle Vederian Lowe (shoulder) and offensive lineman Cole Strange (knee).
Meanwhile, linebacker Christian Elliss (abdomen) and tight end Austin Hooper (neck) were both full participants and were removed from the injury report.
After, suffering a life-threatening injury, Christian Barmore was a full participant in practice. He made his 2024 season debut last week, playing mostly on third-downs, and should get a similar role this week.
Three Dolphins players didn’t participate: OT Terron Armstead (knee), DT Calais Campbell (veteran rest), and CB Kendall Fuller (concussion).
