Though it is still difficult to hear about a bright offensive player on a team that hasn’t had many nice things to say this season, the New England Patriots made a move that many saw coming. Although the decision makes sense in
terms of positioning for the playoffs and avoiding the need to return from injury too soon, supporters will still be excited to hear about his progress during the offseason.
Rhamondre Stevenson will miss the final two games after being placed on injured reserve (IR). He first sustained this injury during the New England Patriots’ defeat by the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite the fact that no official moves had been taken until today, he has been bothered by the ankle strain and had been hoping to return this season.

The New England Patriots have an opportunity to defeat the New York Jets for the 16th time in a row in their last game.
Although injuries are regrettable, most seasoned NFL players are unsure of the specific method being discussed or how to prevent the play without completely forbidding tackling when questioned about it. It would be challenging to consistently identify parallels in this technique, despite the claims of some that this kind of tackle is intrinsically filthy. Because of this, it would be very challenging to call this play on the field. Since we can’t even agree on what a catch is or should be, it may be impossible to evaluate a split decision during live speed gameplay.
