Patriots get bad news on OL Will Campbell's concerning knee injury

It is feared that Patriots left tackle Will Campbell could "miss some time" after suffering a knee injury in Sunday's win over the Raiders.

The New England Patriots faced a setback on Sunday as left tackle Will Campbell left the game due to a knee injury against the Las Vegas Raiders. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that the second-year offensive lineman likely suffered a knee sprain, which will keep him out of action for an undetermined period. The severity of the injury will only be determined after Campbell undergoes an MRI on Monday.

Campbell was initially seen limping off the field after the incident, later standing on the sideline, and even participated in light workout routines. Following Campbell's absence, rookie first-round draft pick Caleb Lomu was called upon to fill in at left tackle. Lomu, who primarily played on the right side as the top backup for Morgan Moses, was chosen to provide an emergency solution at the left side.
