Trey Flowers absence from practice not injury-related

Share

According to a number of reporters at the New England Patriots practice Friday morning, key defensive lineman Trey Flowers was not spotted on the practice field. 

Flowers is second on the team in sacks with 3.5.

He has been one of the Patriots most consistent lineman in regards to pressuring the quarterback, and is one of the most important pieces on New England's defense. 

According to Friday's injury report, Flowers' absence was not injury related. 

This likely indicates that Flowers will play on Sunday, a fortunate outcome for the Patriots. The Vikings' offensive line is the one real weakness on their team, and having the Pats' best pass rusher on the field is key to stopping their dynamic offense.
