Injuries are an unfortunate inevitability in the NFL, and Week 7 is no exception. The injury bug has taken its fair share of bites across the league this season, and we’re seeing that continue this week with a handful of notable players going down.
In the early window between the Patriots and Jaguars from London, both clubs lost starting offensive linemen. For Jacksonville, starting left tackle Cam Robinson left with a concussion, while the Patriots lost starting right guard Layden Robinson due to an ankle injury.
Below is an updated team-by-team list of all the other key Week 7 injuries around the league.
- Curtis Samuel (shoulder): The Bills wideout is questionable to return due to a shoulder injury he suffered in the opening quarter of Buffalo’s matchup with the Titans.
- David Montgomery (leg): The Lions running back suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of Detroit’s matchup with the Vikings and needed assistance coming off of the field. He is questionable to return.
Jacksonville Jaguars
- Cam Robinson (concussion): Jacksonville’s starting left tackle left in the first half of the club’s Week 7 game against New England in London. Initially, the team said he was being evaluated for a concussion, and later ruled out once that diagnosis was confirmed.
New England Patriots
- Layden Robinson (ankle): New England’s starting right guard suffered the injury in the first half and was initially ruled as questionable to return. In the opening minutes of the third quarter, he was downgraded to out.
