New England Patriots wide receiver A. J. Brown and running back TreVeyon Henderson have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins.
Brown is dealing with a knee issue that flared up this week, in addition to a high ankle sprain sustained in the season opener. Henderson is out due to illness, having missed practice on Thursday and Friday. The Patriots are thin at both positions, with only DeMario "Pop" Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism III as healthy receivers, and Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner as the remaining running backs on the 53-man roster.
The team may elevate players from the practice squad, including Ryan Miller and Lan Larison, to fill the roster spots.
