Tyquan Thornton has been dealing with a soft tissue injury, and the New England Patriots wide receiver told reporters that the team was “monitoring” it on Tuesday.
Coach Jerod Mayo mentioned that every player healthy enough to play will see the field in Thursday's preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers. Whether Thornton will be one of those players or not remains to be seen.
The 2022 second-round draft pick missed a practice last week, and he wasn't on the field during team drills at Tuesday's practice.
Injuries have been a problem for him throughout his career.
