The New England Patriots initiated one of the biggest offseason construction projects in recent memory, reuniting with both Mike Vrabel and Josh McDaniels and spending roughly 360 million in free agency to significantly upgrade the entire roster. Christian Gonzalez is unequivocally one of the most important players on this squad, so it is only natural for fans to panic when he is injured. Gonzalez is out of action for now, but the good news is that he is present during Monday’s practice. Vrabel does not currently expect Gonzalez to participate in Wednesday’s joint practice with the Washington Commanders.
