The New England Patriots may have avoided the worst-case scenario with A.J. Brown. But that doesn't mean the news is good. Brown reportedly suffered a high-ankle sprain during New England's 13-10 loss to Seattle, with an MRI expected to provide more information about the severity. Now the Patriots have a major question to answer. Who becomes WR1 if Brown misses time? Romeo Doubs was brought to New England and paid to become a significant part of this offense, but his performance against Seattle didn't exactly inspire confidence that he's ready to immediately replace what Brown provides. Can Josh McDaniels and Drake Maye get him ready before Week 2 against Pittsburgh? Then, we're finding some positives from Wednesday night. Three Patriots rookies immediately caught my attention. Eli Raridon scored New England's first touchdown of the season. Gabe Okis showed some encouraging signs at a position where the Patriots desperately need someone to emerge. And Nnamdi Obiazor showed exactly how a young linebacker can earn his place through special teams. The Patriots lost the game. They may have lost A.J. Brown for some time. But Wednesday night wasn't ALL bad. #NewEnglandPatriots #Patriots #AJBrown #DrakeMaye #NFL Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
