Latest Injury Update Suggests Patriots WR Corps Could Be in Big Trouble for Matchup Against Cowboys
By Thomas Carannante
While the New England Patriots are set to get back starting left tackle Isaiah Wynn, they're actually a bit banged up heading into this week's game vs. the Dallas Cowboys.
Tom Brady is questionable with an elbow issue and that's hardly the end of it. The entire wide receiving corps -- Julian Edelman, Mohamed Sanu and Phillip Dorsett -- was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Week 12.
In fact, the team is already preparing to be without Dorsett.
He's yet to be cleared from the concussion protocol, which, at this point, is a pretty bad sign. As for Sanu, he only appeared in practice on Friday and he was limited with an ankle injury.
We know the Patriots are pretty much impervious to any sort of setback, but this extensive injury report should have fans a little bit concerned, especially against a team as talented as the Cowboys. Dallas isn't known for imposing its will on good teams, but if the Pats are hobbling at so many key positions, Jason Garrett's team could have a notable advantage.
Expect more news on the injury front over the next 24 hours, but fans should start bracing to be at least one wide receiver down come Sunday.
