The Patriots have jumped out to an early lead over the Steelers today, but on their second scoring drive, they suffered a big loss,.
Patriots right guard Mike Onwenu was carted off the field a right ankle injury, and the Patriots ruled him out for the rest of the game within minutes of the injury.
Onwenu has started all 17 games the last two seasons and been one of the most consistent players on the Patriots’ offense, and losing him will be a big blow.
New England got a 39-yard touchdown run from TreVeyon Henderson to take a 7-0 lead in the first quarter, and a 30-yard field goal from Andy Borregales to extend the lead to 10-0 early in the second quarter.
