A.J. Brown and Rhamondre Stevenson among nine Patriots listed questionable for Lions in Munich

The Patriots’ injury report has A.J. Brown (ankle/knee) and Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) both listed as questionable for Sunday’s matchup against the Detroit Lions in Munich, according to New England’s Friday status update. The two are among nine Patriots overall carrying a questionable tag.

For the Patriots, starting cornerback Carlton Davis III, center/guard Ben Brown, and running back TreVeyon Henderson are listed as ruled out heading into Week 10, the team reported as part of its injury report coverage.

New England’s remaining questionable group includes safety Kevin Byard III (chest), tight end Cameron Latu (back), offensive lineman Walter Rouse (concussion), safety Brenden Schooler (hamstring), cornerback Charles Woods (hamstring), fullback Reggie Gilliam (knee), and center/guard Greg Van Roten (hamstring).

On offense, Brown’s availability is tied to whether his limited practice participation progresses to game-day readiness after he returned to practice in the week following a knee injury that had kept him out of the prior two games, the team reported. The article also notes a potential timing conversation around Brown returning after the Patriots’ upcoming bye, even as his presence on the trip and practice participation point toward a chance to play Sunday.

At running back, Stevenson’s questionable designation comes despite limited practice work in Munich after early reporting indicated he might miss games. The Patriots’ game plan could be affected if Stevenson is limited or inactive, with New England discussing Corey Kiner as an early-down option and the possibility of using additional backfield depth in specific passing situations.

New England also highlighted the strain on its offensive and defensive personnel, including concussion protocol for Walter Rouse, potential line shuffling that can involve Greg Van Roten’s status, and continued cornerback depth needs after Davis III is set to miss another game. The team reported that Woods practiced all three days and was a full participant on Friday.
