The Patriots had only three healthy wide receivers — Brandin Cooks, Hogan and Dorsett — on their active roster Sunday. That number was down to one by day’s end. Hogan limped off the field. He returned to the game, but still appeared at less than full speed. Later, it was Dorsett who was taken to the sideline medical-examination tent, reportedly to have his knee examined.
Gronkowski had 116 receiving yards but walked off the field gingerly in the third quarter. It was not Gronkowski’s surgically repaired back that was bothering him. Instead, it was a groin injury, the severity of which is not immediately clear — although he did tell ESPN reporter Mike Reiss that he was “good” after the game.
I was pretty impressed with what I saw from Dorsett. If he can live up to his potential, this offense might take it to another level. However, injuries seems to be piling up.
