SEPTEMBER 20 • SI.COM

Ruled out for Sunday Davis (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Davis was listed as questionable after Friday's practice. The cornerback was unable to practice at all in Week 2, making it unsurprising that he will be incapable of suiting up for Sunday's contest. Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports that Charles Woods is likely the next man up at outside cornerback.

Questionable for Week 2 Davis (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Steelers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Davis played in all but one of the Patriots' defensive snaps in the 13-10 loss to the Seahawks in Week 1. However, he hasn't practiced all week due to a neck injury, casting doubt regarding his availability against Pittsburgh. If Davis can't get out there in Week 2, Charles Woods, Karon Prunty and Channing Canada could each see more action.

DNP Wednesday Davis (neck) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Davis missed just one defensive snap of the Patriots' 13-10 loss to the Seahawks last Wednesday, playing the other 49 and logging three tackles (two solo). The cornerback is dealing with a neck injury, and if he cannot upgrade to at least limited practice participation by Thursday, he will likely miss next Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Practiced in full Saturday Davis (hamstring) was a full participant in Saturday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Davis said he is still getting over the issue but he feels good. The cornerback's return to practice means he may be able to suit up for a few snaps in next Saturday's preseason showdown against the Eagles. If the team wants to take Davis' return slowly, Kindle Vildor and Marcellas Dial may see more snaps at cornerback throughout the preseason.

Back at practice Davis (hamstring) returned to practice Monday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports

Impact After injuring his hamstring on July 28, Davis returned to the New England practice field Monday on a limited basis, making it likely that he avoided a severe tear. The 29-year-old is once again in line to be one of the starting outside cornerbacks for a top-performing Patriots defense alongside Christian Gonzalez. Davis will look to continue his solid defensive play from 2025, where he recorded 69 tackles and 10 pass deflections.

AUGUST 9 • MUSKETFIRE.COM

Out for at least another week Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said Friday that Davis will be sidelined for at least another week due to a hamstring injury, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Davis injured his hamstring during training camp practice July 28 and has not participated in any drills since. The veteran cornerback was unlikely to see much action in preseason games anyways, and if he's ruled for the Patriots' first exhibition game against the Colts on Thursday, then Kobee Minor, Karon Prunty and Marcellas Dial would all be in line for more snaps at outside corner. Davis is looking to build off a solid 2025 regular season, when he tallied 69 tackles (39 solo) and 10 pass defenses over 17 games.

AUGUST 8 • ROTOWIRE

Still dealing with injury Davis (undisclosed) did not participate at the Patriots' training camp practice Wednesday, Sophie Weller of USA Today reports.

Impact It's still not immediately clear what kind of issue Davis is tending to, and there's no concrete timetable for his return to practice. In the meantime, Charles Woods figures to continue to see more reps with the first-team secondary.

Absent from Thursday practice Davis (undisclosed) was not present at Thursday's practice, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports.

Impact Davis' absence makes way for Charles Woods to receive starting reps across from Christian Gonzalez. If Davis remains absent, Woods seems to be the favorite to take over as the starting outside cornerback. Kobee Minor and Karon Prunty may also get a chance at meaningful reps if Davis has a more serious issue.
