Patriots won’t make sweeping changes after latest O-line injury

The New England Patriots are preparing for their fourth match of the campaign as a mounting wave of injuries hits their offensive line. Mike Onwenu initially secured the right guard spot before sustaining a severe ankle fracture in week two against Pittsburgh, ending his season prematurely.

His substitute, Greg Van Roten, managed only a single appearance before exiting a loss in Jacksonville with a thigh issue, landing him on the injured reserve list and forcing head coach Mike Vrabel to seek a third starter at the position. For the upcoming fixture against Buffalo, leadership is weighing Walter Rouse and Ben Brown for the vacancy, while ruling out any positional shifts for Alijah Vera-Tucker.
