The Patriots head to Miami to face division rivals, the Dolphins, on Sunday afternoon. On this episode of the Greg Bedard Patriots Podcast, Greg and Nick Cattles dive into the latest injury news coming out of Foxborough. A.J. Brown was a non-participant in today’s practice with a knee injury. Yesterday, he was limited with an ankle injury. Greg and Nick discuss where this leaves the Patriots. Was playing him this many snaps vs. the Jets and Bears a good idea following his high ankle sprain? What does this mean for the wide receiver room with Doubs and (likely) Brown out for Sunday’s game? The guys express their concerns.

After the break, Greg answers questions from Boston Sports Journal members on a wide range of questions. He talks Kyle Williams, TreVeyon Henderson, Robert Spillane, and Marcus Jones and explains where his rooting interests lie.
