Brown and Stevenson trending up for Patriots-Lions in Munich

Coach Mike Vrabel says the injured stars looked pretty good in practice but their status for Sunday is still to be determined.

Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown and running back Rhamondre Stevenson have looked "pretty good" in practice this week, according to coach Mike Vrabel, though neither player's status for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions in Munich has been locked in.

Brown is managing ankle and knee issues, while Stevenson is working back from a knee injury suffered in last week's loss to the Packers. Speaking to reporters at Bayern Munich's facilities before Friday's practice, Vrabel was asked to assess how both players were coming along. "Based on yesterday I think pretty good," he said. "Again, still have to go through today and see where that goes."

Stevenson, the team's leading rusher, was limited in Thursday's jog-through practice after the Patriots arrived in Bavaria, having sat out practice the week before. Brown remained limited as well. The team has not yet confirmed whether either player will suit up for Sunday's international matchup against Detroit.
