Patriots HC Bill Belichick wasn’t clear about whether QB Cam Newton would be available for Week 5 against Denver.
Assuming there are no further positive COVID-19 tests, the Patriots’ Week 5 matchup against Denver will proceed as scheduled. The game, of course, was postponed until Monday night after cornerback Stephon Gilmore contracted the virus earlier in the week. He obviously won’t be on the field with his teammates versus the Broncos.
