Patriots add running back to Thursday injury report
Running back Antonio Gibson was added to the Patriots’ injury report on Thursday.
The Patriots released their second injury report of Week 1 on Thursday. Following Thursday’s practice there were multiple changes to the initial report on Wednesday.
The biggest change is the addition of running back Antonio Gibson (hip). Gibson was one of three players listed as limited on Thursday, joining tackle Vederian Lowe (abdomen) and linebacker Joshua Uche (foot). Both Lowe and Uche were also limited on Wednesday.
Linebacker Oshane Ximines (ankle) and cornerback Jonathan Jones (hamstring) were both upgraded to full participants on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. They joined tight end Hunter Henry (foot), defensive lineman Deatrich Wise (hamstring), and linebacker Anfernee Jennings (wrist) as players listed as full participants on Thursday. Linebacker Christian Elliss (concussion) was removed from the report all together after being a full participant on Thursday.
Meanwhile, guard Sidy Sow (ankle) didn’t practice for the second day in a row. That leaves his status for Sunday’s season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals in doubt.
The Bengals added multiple players to their side of the injury report on Thursday. Wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring) and linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither (not injury related/rest) were both limited on Thursday, with rookie wide receiver Jermaine Burton (toe) added as a full participant.
Wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase (not injury related/rest) was limited for the second day in a row. Chase didn’t practice this summer, and is looking for a new contract from the Bengals.
