Patriots inactives: Garrett Bradbury active; rookie a surprise healthy scratch
FOXBORO — Patriots center Garrett Bradbury will suit up Monday despite being listed as questionable with an illness.
Bradbury was a late addition to the injury report on Monday afternoon.
Rookie offensive tackle Marcus Bryant is a surprise healthy scratch with rookie left tackle Will Campbell already on injured reserve. Veteran Thayer Munford Jr., who was added this week, gets the nod over Bryant.

Notes:
• Tonga was listed as questionable heading into Monday night’s matchup. With Milton Williams on injured reserve, the Patriots are shorthanded at defensive tackle with Christian Barmore, Cory Durden, rookies Eric Gregory and Joshua Farmer and Jeremiah Pharms Jr., a practice squad elevation, available.
• Swinson made his NFL debut last week on special teams. He’ll be a healthy scratch with needs elsewhere.
• Caedan Wallace, who can play guard or tackle, is set to make his season debut. It’s a significant surprise to see Bryant inactive. He briefly replaced veteran Morgan Moses in last week’s win over the Bengals.
• Dippre, who was signed to the 53-man roster last month, has yet to make his NFL debut.
• DeVito, a former Giant, can only enter Monday night’s game if Drake Maye and Joshua Dobbs both suffer injuries.
• Wilson and Schooler were ruled out Saturday after both suffering injuries in last Sunday’s win over the Bengals. Expect Ben Brown to start in place of Wilson. Schooler’s roles will be primarily filled by cornerbacks Miles Battle and Charles Woods, and safety Dell Pettus, per head coach Mike Vrabel.
