The Patriots lost 45-27 to the Packers on Sunday, and the injury toll continued to mount afterward. Head coach Mike Vrabel said at a Monday press conference that guard Ben Brown injured his knee during the game and he doesn't think Brown will be in the lineup for the Week 10 matchup against the Lions in Germany. Brown started at left guard and was replaced by Walter Rouse.
The offensive line has been hit especially hard. Guards Mike Onwenu and Alijah Vera-Tucker are both on injured reserve, which has pushed Matt Pryor into the starting lineup.
Running back Rhamondre Stevenson is getting an MRI on his knee, and Vrabel said the team does not have an update on his condition at this point. A source told ESPN that Stevenson is expected to miss time with a knee tendon issue, while NBC Sports reported he could miss a 'short period of time.'
The backfield is already thin. TreVeyon Henderson is out as he looks for answers to a neurological condition, leaving Corey Kiner and Lan Larison as the team's healthy running backs.
