The New England Patriots have suffered a potential injury blow ahead of their Week 1 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.
A new era of football will begin this weekend. Jerod Mayo and the new-look Patriots are set to move forward from the days of Bill Belichick. It's an emotional change for the fans, but one that brings new excitement.
On Thursday, they added running back Antonio Gibson to their injury report. He is dealing with a hip injury. Signed this offseason in free agency, Gibson is projected to be a key role player behind Rhamondre Stevenson in the backfield. He is currently listed as the primary backup running back.. He fell out of that role over the last two years, but has done enough to showcase major potential when called upon.
Hopefully, he'll be able to play to start the season. He will have an important role keeping Stevenson fresh. For now, there is some doubt about his status to play the Bengals.
