00:00Should we do injuries right off the bat, Sal?
00:02Let's check the injury report because on the Patriots side of things,
00:05we have a number of players, and important players as well, ruled out
00:08with Christian Barmore, Christian Gonzalez, both ruled out,
00:11two of their better defensive players, and a number of injuries as well,
00:14including Drake May on the injury report.
00:15He's been a full participant throughout the week.
00:18Does not have a game status designation, just the actual right shoulder
00:21and full participant on the injury report.
00:23But the losses of Barmore and Gonzalez for New England,
00:27tough for a unit that might have to carry this team
00:30because the Patriots' offense has been so bad.
00:32New England's defense has been decent, but they're down big, big pieces.
00:37Yeah, for sure.
00:37And, of course, the two Christians are the biggest ones there, Gonzalez and Barmore.
00:42And you would think that Christian Gonzalez might be a guy that would, you know,
00:47match up with DJ Moore most likely all afternoon long.
00:49And now they don't have that possibility, so they'll have to shuffle the deck
00:53a little bit there on how they want to defend the Bills.
00:55And then Christian Barmore, and that's on the passing end,
00:56and Christian Barmore, of course, a really good run defender.
01:00You know, he's a guy that came back from blood clots a couple of years ago
01:02and, you know, did a nice job to make his way back.
01:04And if you listen to some people in New England media, also,
01:07they'll say he hasn't quite been, you know, as effective the first few games,
01:10and now he's dealing with the injury.
01:11So he's on the injury.
01:13Report, Brendan Schooler is also going to be out for this game against the Bills.
01:17And then you have also seven guys who are questionable,
01:21including Morgan Moses on the offensive line who did return to practice this week.
01:24They are down to their third right guard after a couple injuries.
01:28Greg Van Roten was their backup.
01:29He got hurt last week.
01:30A familiar name on the list, Reggie Gilliam, has a knee injury.
01:35He's been managing that.
01:36He's questionable to play.
01:37My guess is he probably will, but you never know until they get out there.
01:39But they are dealing with it.
01:40And then, of course, the big name, the quarterback, Drake May.
01:43And, you know, he has no injury designation.
01:45But we know now he's been dealing with a shoulder injury.
01:47The team claims that the shoulder injury happened on Sunday in Jacksonville.
01:52I say claimed because I think there's been question about, you know,
01:55when actually he did, if he has been injured all year,
01:57the way he's been throwing the ball, people watching.
01:59They've been saying he hasn't.
02:00And now he shows up in the injury report, and they say something happened on Sunday.
02:05So that's just a storyline that's been revolving around the Patriots
02:09for the last couple of weeks.
02:10So that's just a thing.
