Patriots’ A.J. Brown returns from IR after missing 4 games with ankle injury
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown is set to return to action for the first time since being placed on injured reserve with a high ankle sprain. The New England Patriots' star wide receiver will be taking the field for the first time since missing four games due to the injury. Brown was activated to the 53-man roster on Saturday after being sidelined since the season opener.
The Patriots' fans welcomed Brown's return with an extended ovation as he jumped and waved his arms during introductions before Sunday's matchup against the New York Jets. Despite playing just 31 snaps in the previous game against the Seattle Seahawks, Brown remains optimistic about his second start, hoping it will be a more successful outing than his first.
