New England Patriots offensive lineman Andrew Stueber is out of commission due to injury, and now, there is a confirmed reason why.
Pro Football Network’s Aaron Wilson reported Thursday that the offensive tackle has a torn hamstring.
Stueber was selected in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL draft. The former Michigan product was part of an effort to beef up New England’s offensive line. Now, it appears we may have to wait a while.
He could be activated off the PUP list after four weeks. However, this injury is in line with what Dallas Cowboys tackle Tyron Smith is going through. Smith’s timeline has been pushed to at least December.
