The New England Patriots and New York Jets both will be without a few important players for Monday night's Week 7 matchup at Gillette Stadium.
The Patriots had already ruled out five players over the weekend, with the latest coming Sunday with the announcement that running back Rex Burkhead wouldn't play because of a foot injury. He has not played since Week 4.
Burkhead's absence has led to rookie running back Damien Harris being active for just the second time this season. He played a few snaps on special teams in the Patriots' 30-14 Week 3 win over the Jets, but he has yet to tally a carry in his NFL career.
New England also will be without defensive lineman Michael Bennett, who was suspended one game by the team. Veteran safety Patrick Chung is out, too.
The defending Super Bowl champs will not have two of their tight ends. Ryan Izzo and Matt LaCosse both are out, which means 38-year-old veteran Benjamin Watson will be the lead tight end less than a week after rejoining the team. The Patriots also will be shorthanded at wide receiver with Josh Gordon unavailable.
Here are the inactives for both teams.
