Running back TreVeyon Henderson is also listed as questionable after Patriots coach Mike Vrabel gave injury updates on Friday.
A.J. Brown is questionable for Sunday's road game against the Dolphins, Patriots coach Mike Vrabel announced Friday. Brown has missed the past two practices while dealing with multiple injuries, including the ankle issue he suffered in Week 1 against the Seahawks and a flare-up of an ongoing knee problem.
Running back TreVeyon Henderson is also questionable for the matchup, giving New England uncertainty on both sides of the offense heading into the weekend.
If Brown can't go, the Patriots would be stretched thin at wide receiver. The team is already without Romeo Doubs and Mack Hollins, meaning a Brown absence would leave Kyle Williams, DeMario Douglas and Efton Chism III as the top receiving options against Miami.
Vrabel's update offers little clarity beyond the questionable tags, so New England's receiving corps and backfield plans may not firm up until closer to kickoff. For a team already managing multiple absences at receiver, Brown's status looms large over how the offense will attack a divisional opponent.
