Whereas Joshuah Bledsoe (groin) and Shaun Wade (ankle) will both miss the season opener because of their respective ailments, right tackle Isaiah Wynn (back), wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee) and running back Ty Montgomery (knee) are al buffalo n J J Watt Jerseys fl shirt quote l active buffalo nfl shirt black . Like Bledsoe and Wade, the three of them were listed as questionable heading into the weekend; all Rob Gronkowski Jerseys three were limited in practice the entire week.
Wynn and Meyers were expected to be ready for the game in Miami, while Montgomery can be seen as a minor surprise. Just two weeks after suffering a seriously-looking injury in the preseason finale, the offseason acquisition will make his Patriots debut.

Two former ex-Patriots — Trey Flowers and Eric Rowe — will not participate in Sunday’s contest. Neither will cornerback Noah Igbinoghene, which comes as a bit of a surprise given Miami’s current depth at the position with Byron Jones opening the year on the physically unable to perform list.
