New England Patriots Inactives Analysis for Seahawks Game
New England Patriots Activate Key Players vs. Seahawks
The New England Patriots are set for their home opener against the Seattle Seahawks, welcoming back some crucial contributors to the field. Official announcements confirm that safety Kyle Dugger, defensive end Deatrich Wise Jr., right guard Layden Robinson, and running back JaMycal Hasty are active following injury concerns. The team has designated five players as inactive.
Players Declared Inactive
- G Sidy Sow (ankle)
- WR Kayshon Boutte
- LB Curtis Jacobs
- OT Demontrey Jacobs
- QB Joe Milton (emergency)
Currently, the Patriots roster includes 52 players due to OT Chuks Okorafor's placement on the exempt/left squad list. The anticipated return of key players increases expectations for New England in this decisive matchup. Last week, Okorafor struggled against the Bengals, leading to this decision, which also affects the team's tackle depth.
Projected Starting Lineup
- LT Vederian Lowe
- LG Michael Jordan
- C David Andrews
- RG Layden Robinson
- RT Mike Onwenu
Defensively, the Patriots will need to tackle Seattle’s strong receiving corps without their top running back Kenneth Walker, who is inactive this week, along with starting right tackle George Fant.
Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET at Gillette Stadium, where New England aims to shock the football world again, following their impressive victory against Cincinnati.
