Patch Patriots Roundup: Start Time, How To Watch, Storylines
The Patriots will welcome one of the most explosive players in the NFL to Gillette Stadium in Lamar Jackson. Here's what to know.

FOXBOROUGH, MA — There's really just one question the Patriots will need to successfully answer this weekend to leave Gillette Stadium with a win: How in the world do you stop Lamar Jackson?
Patch will leave that question up to Bill Belichick and the defensive coaching staff, but for information on how to get the game, and the week's biggest Patriots storylines going into it, we've got you covered:

Patriots Injury Update
Both Jakobi Meyers and Kyle Dugger didn't participate in practice on Thursday, and Dugger is expected to be a game-time decision for Sunday.
According to the Boston Sports Journal's Greg Bedard, Meyers is expected to play on Sunday, while Dugger is less certain.
Pats Trade Depth Offensive Tackle
Justin Herron is leaving New England, but he'll be joining a familiar face in his next stop.
The backup offensive tackle was shipped off to Las Vegas for a 2024 sixth round pick. The Raiders and former offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels will welcome Herron to the roster, and will also receive a 2024 seventh round pick.
Herron will have a chance to replace starting right tackle Brandon Parker, who is out for the year following a tricep injury.
What To Watch
The Ravens are known for their dynamic running game, but, in 2022, their still depleted backfield isn't helping their superstar quarterback. Football outsiders ranks the running game last in their efficiency metrics, and their counting stats are merely middle of the road.
A lot of that is likely credited to lingering injuries to running back J.K. Dobbins and star tackle Ronnie Stanley. On the defensive side of the ball, the Patriots will look to make sure Sunday isn't the Ravens get-right-game on the ground, while trying to stunt Jackson through the air.
Offensively, can Mac Jones and this offense get something — anything — going after putting up less than 20 points in each of the last two weeks?
