New England Patriots left guard Cole Strange is set to be active in his first game of the season against the Buffalo Bills.
The 2022 first-round draft pick hasn’t played since suffering his season-ending knee injury last year. He has started in every game since coming to New England.
His return will give the struggling Patriots offensive line a much-needed boost up front. It will also give the Patriots’ coaching staff a chance to preview a new offensive line combination before the offseason.
Cole Strange injury update
Strange has missed most of the season due to the torn patellar tendon injury he suffered last December. He suffered the injury against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17 last year and has been rehabbing it ever since.
There was always a belief that he would return at some point this season, and now, he’ll finally get his chance to step back onto the field.
