  "account": "The New England Patriots offensive line suffered another setback this preseason as right tackle Marcus Bryant left Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles due to an ankle injury. Bryant, 24, was already dealing with setbacks from last week's preseason opener, suffering multiple injury concerns for the Patriots' offensive line. The team announced that Bryant would not return to the game and had to be helped off the field by staff members. A 220th overall pick in the seventh round of the NFL Draft, Bryant served as a backup at right tackle and appeared in just three of his 12 games as a rookie. Despite his limited playing time, he played a significant role alongside first-round rookie Caleb Lomu in the Patriots' offensive line this summer. With Bryant sidelined, the team relied on rookie Dametrious Crownover as the primary backup at tackle behind starters Will Campbell and Morgan Moses. The injury bug continued to haunt the Patriots' line last week when top interior backups Ben Brown and Andrew Rupcich left with injuries, with Brown expected to miss multiple weeks and Rupcich placed on injured reserve and waived with an injury settlement.",
