3 injury updates ahead of Patriots vs. Bengals season opener

The New England Patriots will open their 2024 regular season against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, and there are some questions about players on both sides heading into the game. While they will at least be partially answered when inactives are announced 90 minutes before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, there are a few early indications already.

As of game day morning, there are reports about three players — one Patriots running back and two Bengals wide receivers.

Patriots RB Antonio Gibson

The Patriots expect Gibson to play a prominent role within their offense as a complementary piece alongside Rhamondre Stevenson.
