G Tyrese Robinson
DE Yannick Ngakoue

Notes on inactives:

— The Patriots also will dress four tight ends: Hunter Henry, Austin Hooper, Jaheim Bell and Mitchell Wilcox.

— With Elliss out and Raekwon McMillan cut, the Patriots will dress Jahlani Tavai, Sione Takitaki, Curtis Jacobs and Joe Giles-Harris at off-ball linebacker.

— The Patriots continue to be shorthanded at safety with Dugger out and Jabrill Peppers on the commissioner’s exempt list. Marte Mapu, Jaylinn Hawkins and rookie Dell Pettus will take on the biggest roles with special teamer Brenden Schooler another option on defense.

— The Patriots’ available offensive linemen are Vederian Lowe, Michael Jordan, Ben Brown, Layden Robinson, Mike Onwenu, Demontrey Jacobs, Lecitus Smith and Sidy Sow. Onwenu practiced at left guard and right guard this week. If he plays left guard, then Jordan will sit. If he plays right guard, then Layden Robinson will sit.
