Report: Patriots DE Sheard has sprained MCL, out 2-4 weeks

Share

Add another name to the rash of injured Patriots. Defensive end Jabaal Sheard has been playing with a sprained medial collateral ligament, the Boston Herald reported.

Jeff Howe reports that Sheard sustained the injury in the preseason opener against the Saints and Sheard has been given a recovery timetable of 2-4 weeks. 

The injuries have been piling up in camp, particularly on the defensive edge with Rob Ninkovich (triceps) and Shea McClellin, who sustained an undisclosed injury against the Saints. Veteran Chris Long, signed in the offseason, and second-year player Trey Flowers have been filling in. 

More to come…
