Early in training camp, New England Patriots defensive lineman Christian Barmore was diagnosed with blood clots and was placed on the team's non-football injury list with no timetable to return.
Considering center David Andrews missed a full season with blood clots just a few years ago, there were many who believed that Barmore could've sat out all of 2024.
However, after returning to practice on Wednesday, the Patriots are reportedly activating Barmore from NFI on Saturday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
New England's defensive front will get a huge boost from Barmore's return, as he's proven to be one of the league's best interior rushers.
