The New England Patriots will go without additional two against the New York Giants.
Starting left guard Jared Wilson and special teams captain Brenden Schooler have been ruled out for Monday night, head coach Mike Vrabel announced during his weekend press conference.
Here’s the rest of the game statuses leading up to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff at Gillette Stadium.
OUT
Patriots
- G Jared Wilson (ankle)
- S Brenden Schooler (ankle)
Giants
- LB Kayvon Thibodeaux (shoulder)
Ankle injuries quickly hit the Patriots last Sunday at Paycor Stadium. Wilson, an 11-game rookie starter along the offensive line, exited on the opening drive. Schooler, a reigning All-Pro standing with a team-high 77.2 percent of the snaps in the kicking game, then exited before halftime. Both were ruled out on the way to what became a 26-20 win. Both have since been non-participants for three consecutive practices in Foxborough. Earlier in primetime preparations, New England sent left tackle and No. 4 overall pick Will Campbell to injured reserve along with cornerback Alex Austin.
QUESTIONABLE
Patriots
- DT Khyiris Tonga (chest)
- LB Harold Landry III (knee)
Giants
- LB Victor Dimukeje (knee)
- LB Swayze Bozeman (hip)
- LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (neck, knee)
- CB Korie Black (biceps)
Saturday’s in-stadium practice saw a pair of March signings return for the Patriots. Questionable game designations followed. Landry had been listed as sidelined on back-to-back injury reports due to a knee issue. The captain off the edge leads New England with 16 quarterback hits and is tied for the lead 6.5 sacks through a dozen starts. As for Tonga, the nose tackle, short-yardage fullback and offseason award winner suffered a chest injury versus the Cincinnati Bengals. A season-low 12 defensive snaps were the result. He has since been a limited participant as well as a non-participant for an interior defensive line that lost standout Milton Williams to IR midway through November.
