Keion White - Active for Week 9 White (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's matchup with the Titans.

Impact White was dealing with a knee issue to open the week, forcing him to log back-to-back limited practices. The defensive lineman was able to practice in full Friday and he now appears to be a full go for Week 9 against Tennessee.

Jahlani Tavai - Ready to go for Week 9 Tavai (back) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's matchup with the Titans.

Impact Tavai was limited at practice to open the week due to a back injury, but the linebacker was able to log a full practice Friday, dispelling any chance that he'd be unavailable for Week 9. The 28-year-old has compiled 48 total tackles (24 solo) and a pass defensed over eight games in 2024.

Kyle Dugger - Questionable for Week 9 Dugger (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

Impact Dugger was a limited participant at each of New England's three practice this week, but his status remains up in the air for Week 9. If he is forced to miss a second game in a row due to his ankle injury, Jaylinn Hawkins will likely draw another start at strong safety versus Tennessee.

Tyquan Thornton - Cleared for Week 9 Thornton (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact After being limited Thursday, Thornton practiced fully Friday, which paves the way for him to be available Sunday against Tennessee. That said, the 2022 second-rounder isn't a high-percentage profile fantasy option these days while working in a wideout corps that also includes DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Kendrick Bourne, Ja'Lynn Polk and K.J. Osborn.

Antonio Gibson - Ready to face Titans Gibson (toe) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact After being limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday, Gibson worked fully Friday, paving the way for the running back to face Tennessee on Sunday. In the Patriots' win over the Jets in Week 8, Gibson was on the field for 13 snaps on offense, en route to rushing five times for seven yards in the contest. With Rhamondre Stevenson -- who finished with 20 carries versus New York -- working in the lead role, Gibson's fantasy value is limited in his complementary role.

Ja'Lynn Polk - Cleared for Week 9 action Polk (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact Polk was inactive for past Sunday's game against the Jets, but after practicing fully both Thursday and Friday, he's been cleared for Week 9 action. However, while returning to a New England wideout corps that features DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne, Polk profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option versus Tennessee. Through seven games to date, the 2024 second-rounder has recorded 10 catches for 78 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets.

Drake Maye - Questionable for Sunday Maye (concussion) officially is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Tennessee.

Impact Maye was able to handle limited work in all three practices during Week 9 prep, giving him a chance to miss no time as a result of the concussion he sustained this past Sunday against the Jets. Having said that, he'll still need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to suit up this weekend. At the latest, Maye's status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Jacoby Brissett is on hand to start if Maye doesn't pass through the protocol for head injuries.

Drake Maye - Limited again, may still play Sunday Head coach Jerod Mayo said that Maye (concussion) will be a limited participant in Friday's practice, but the Patriots haven't yet ruled the quarterback out from playing in Sunday'...

Impact Mayo added that Maye remains in the concussion protocol, after the rookie quarterback suffered the head injury on a helmet-to-helmet hit during this past Sunday's win over the Jets. Though Maye was cleared to practice Wednesday as a limited participant, he has yet to increase his activity in the two days that have followed. The Patriots are likely to list Maye as questionable or doubtful for the Week 9 contest when they release their final injury report later Friday, and though Mayo is leaving the door open for the 22-year-old to play Sunday, Jacoby Brissett is probably trending toward starting against the Titans at this point in the week.

Tyquan Thornton - Added to injury report Thornton (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday.

Impact Thornton practiced fully Wednesday, so it's possible that he tweaked his ankle during Thursday's session. If Thornton is available Sunday against the Titans, he'd profile as a low-percentage fantasy option while working in a New England wideout corps that also includes DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Kendrick Bourne and Ja'Lynn Polk (concussion).

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Ja'Lynn Polk - Practices fully Thursday Polk (concussion) practiced fully Thursday.

Impact After being limited Wednesday, Polk upgraded to full participation a day later, which has the 2024 second-rounder trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. If cleared for Week 9 action, Polk would profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option in a New England wideout corps that features DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Christian Elliss - Returns to practice Thursday Elliss (abdomen) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday's injury report.

Impact Elliss opened the week as a DNP due to an abdomen injury he likely picked up during the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Jets. His return to practice Thursday, even as a limited participant, is a step in the right direction, and Friday's injury report should provide clarity on Elliss' chances of playing against the Titans on Sunday. If he's unable to play, Raekwon McMillan could see snaps with the first-team defense at inside linebacker.

Drake Maye - Another limited practice Maye (concussion) remained limited at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Back-to-back limited sessions set the stage for what Maye is able to do at practice Friday to loom large in terms of his chances of facing the Titans on Sunday. If the QB is unable to progress fully through the NFL's concussion protocol before then, however, Jacoby Brissett would be in line to draw the start against Tennessee.

NFL Week 9 is here. Check out the odds for all 15 matchups!

OCTOBER 31

Keion White - Now dealing with knee injury White (knee) was limited during Wednesday's practice session.

Impact White was able to play through an ankle injury this past Sunday against the Jets, and he finished that game with four solo tackles and a forced fumble. However, it appears he may have injured his knee during the win, which limited him in practice Wednesday. Given he's played through injuries for most of the regular season, White should be good to go against the Titans on Sunday as long as he continues to practice in at least a limited capacity this week.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Christian Elliss - Opens week as DNP Elliss (abdomen) did not practice Wednesday.

Impact Elliss logged a team-high nine tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Jets. However, it appears he may have injured his abdomen in the process, which kept him off the practice field Wednesday. Elliss will have two more chances this week to practice in some capacity ahead of Sunday's game against Tennessee.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Jahlani Tavai - Nursing back injury Tavai (back) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Impact Tavai may have picked up a back injury during the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Jets, during which he logged six tackles (four solo). He'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. Through the first eight games of the regular season, Tavai has logged 48 tackles (24 soloo) and one pass breakup.

Titans vs. Patriots Injury Report – Week 9, 2024

See who's in and who's out for the Week 9 matchup between the Tennessee Titans and New England Patriots on November 3, 2024.

OCTOBER 30 • DATA SKRIVE

Antonio Gibson - Limited by toe injury Gibson (toe) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact In this past Sunday's 25-22 win over the Jets, Gibson logged 13 snaps on offense, while rushing five times for seven yards in the contest. As long as Rhamondre Stevenson (who had 20 carries versus New York) is available, Gibson's fantasy value is limited in his complementary backfield role.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Ja'Lynn Polk - Returns to limited practice Polk (concussion) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact Polk didn't practice ahead the Patriots' win over the Jets this past Sunday, but the wideout's ability to practice Wednesday indicates that he's progressing through the NFL's concussion protocol. If the 2024 second-rounder -- who's had issues with drops this season -- is available Sunday against the Titans, he'd be a speculative lineup option in Week 9, with DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne also in New England's wideout mix.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Ekuale - Logs limited session Wednesday Ekuale (abdomen) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Ekuale likely sustained an abdomen injury in Patriots practice that forced him to miss Week 8's win over the Jets. However, Wednesday's limited session suggests he could return as soon as Week 9, when the Patriots face the Titans. His participation in practice Thursday and Friday will provide the best indication of whether he can suit up Sunday.
