Patriots | Demaryius Thomas placed on PUP list

New England Patriots WR Demaryius Thomas (Achilles) is on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list entering his first season with the Pats.

Footballguys View: This was completely expected. If Thomas can make the opening day roster it will be an upset. He is more likely to either be released or stay on the PUP list during the season. His health and Josh Gordon’s status with the league will be key to first round pick N’keal Harry’s redraft value.

Patriots | Sony Michel unable to perform

New England Patriots RB Sony Michel (knee) opens training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list after undergoing a procedure on his knee this offseason.

Yeah. Dawgs gotta eat, right?’
