Julian Edelman was knocked out of the New England Patriots’ Week 3 win over the New York Jets, but it looks like he’ll be back for the team’s trip upstate this weekend.
Edelman was considered in danger of missing Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, but NESN reports that the wide receiver is now expected to play after suffering a chest injury last Sunday. Whether he could be limited by the injury remains unclear, the report noted.
“Edelman was questionable for New England’s Week 4 AFC matchup against the Buffalo Bills, but it appears he likely will be on the field,” the report noted. “NFL Network’s Michael Giardi reported Saturday that Edelman is expected to play when the Patriots put their 3-0 record on the line. That’s certainly good news for New England, but it will be worth watching whether Edelman will have any limitations from his chest injury.”
