While the New England Patriots suffered an embarrassing loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, the team appears to have won news on the front lines of injuries.
First, there’s an update on offensive guard Joe Thuney. Thuney, who left the game in the third quarter, was diagnosed with a slight sprained ankle shortly after the game ended.
Patriots defensive lineman Lawrence Guy is largely on the same bill after his own second-quarter injury. While Guy did not leave the game as catcher N’Keal Harry, he takes Justin Herron (ankle) or Thuney offensive, he stayed in the box after a three-metre run by Deebo Samuel in the middle of the race.
Guy spoke to him on Monday and explained what had happened.
“I feel good,” Guy said, “I had a little problem, they treated me and I went back there. It’s one of the things that when you get stuck between the bodies, you drop someone on top, you have to make it work, get treatment on the sidelines and come back. in the game Nothing too serious.
“I got stuck in the pile, so I had to have a checkup. Like I said, it happens in football,” Guy added.
Guy finished the competition with 62% of defensive shots (41). He ended up with one capture and two saves in defense, according to Doug Kyed of NESN. com.
The fourth-year Patriot is expected to be online to make his seventh start of the season as New England against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday for their Week 8 competition.
