A.J. Brown injury update is not great news for Patriots
The Patriots will be without their newly acquired superstar for at least a few weeks.
A.J. Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain, NFL Network reported on Thursday, after going down with an injury early in the third quarter in the Patriots’ embarrassing 13-10 defeat to the Seahawks Wednesday night in what was a Super Bowl rematch to kick off the 2026 NFL season.
X-rays came back negative for a fracture, according to the report.
High-ankle sprains typically take at least two weeks to heal and for players to return to game action, but more severe ones can take much longer.
Brown had three catches for 26 yards on four targets in his abbreviated Patriots debut.
Expect Romeo Doubs and Mack Hollins to start in two-receiver sets in his stead, while second-year player Kyle Williams could also get a bigger look in New England’s offense.
