Flowers has his own injury issues (shoulder and knee) so I don’t think it’s a lock, but it would make a ton of sense if Flowers is able to go. We’re all waiting for Flowers’ debut and this type of game would fit him well if he’s able to go. Otherwise Grissom probably has to step in in some capacity.
It’s pretty amazing, two weeks ago the Pats had no injuries and everyone was talking about going 16-0. Now they’ve lost their left tackle for the year, his backup went down too along with our best pass rusher (Sheard) and who knows how long they’ll be out despite saying the injuries were “minor”.
Hopefully Wendell is able to return this week and step into a guard rotation with Kline and Jackson (I’m guessing Mason is out). We just have to pray to the football gods we don’t sustain another tackle injury because then it starts to get ridiculous.
