The New England Patriots placed veteran offensive tackle Riley Reiff on injured reserve Monday, ruling him out for at least four games to begin the regular season.
Reiff suffered a right knee injury in the Patriots' preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans.
The Patriots signed Reiff as a free agent in March, and he was projected to be the team's starting right tackle this season.
Reiff, 34, spent last season with the Chicago Bears, starting 10 of the 16 games he played. Reiff has played in 163 games (149 starts) for the Detroit Lions (2012-16) -- who selected him No.
