The wait continues for Josh Uche’s NFL debut.
The rookie linebacker, who the New England Patriots selected 60th overall in the 2020 NFL Draft, was a healthy scratch for Week 1, and now he’s out for Week 2.
With the Patriots and Seattle Seahawks set to meet Sunday night, Uche was the only player listed as out for either team when the injury reports were released Friday afternoon. He was a limited participant in Friday’s practice with an ankle injury.
The only addition to either team’s injury report was special teams ace Matthew Slater being added to the Patriots’ list. He was a limited participant due to a knee injury.
Julian Edelman (knee) and N’Keal Harry (shoulder) are among the players considered questionable Sunday. So too is former Pats receiver Phillip Dorsett, now with Seattle, who is dealing with a foot ailment.
Here are Friday’s injury reports for both teams.
