Notches sack vs. Dolphins Barmore recorded two total tackles (both solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 34-15 loss to the Patriots.

Impact Barmore missed the Patriots' first 10 games this season due to blood clots but returned in Week 11, recording five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in the two games since his comeback. The Alabama product's snap share increased from 39 percent in Week 11 to 52 percent in Week 12, and it will likely continue to rise as he regains full football shape. Barmore is expected to remain a disruptive force for New England's defense as the Patriots host the Colts in Week 13.

Active Sunday Barmore (undisclosed) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Dolphins.

Impact The defensive tackle was listed as questionable, but it was likely due to the team's management of his practice workload after he missed the first 10 games of the season after getting blood clots in August. Barmore played on 20 defensive snaps in his season debut against the Rams last week, making three solo tackles.

Should play Sunday Barmore (not injury related) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins but is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact The Patriots seem to be managing Barmore's practice workload after he was diagnosed with blood clots in August and ended up missing the first 10 games of the season before debuting in last Sunday's loss to the Rams. He played 20 snaps and logged three tackles in that game, then sat out practices Wednesday and Friday this week and logged a full session Thursday. Assuming Barmore is officially cleared ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll likely have his playing time monitored closely in Miami, but he could see a slight uptick in his workload from Week 11.

Questionable for Week 12 Barmore (undisclosed) did not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Impact Barmore continues to have his workload managed as he works his way back from blood clots which sidelined him until Week 11 against the Rams, and he finished that contest with three solo tackles while playing 20 snaps on defense. Thursday marked Barmore's only practice of the week, but he's expected to suit up for Sunday's AFC East clash.

Will make 2024 debut Barmore (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Barmore was on the Patriots' reserve/NFI list for the first 10 games of the regular season after being diagnosed with blood clots during training camp. He was activated from the NFI list Saturday, and he will make his 2024 regular-season debut Sunday. Given his lengthy absence and the fact he has just one practice under his belt, Barmore will likely operate on a snap count as the Patriots' ramp up the 2021 second-round pick, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.

Activated off IR The Patriots activated Barmore (illness) from injured reserve Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Barmore was diagnosed with blood clots in August, which prevented him from playing over the first 10 games of the regular season. Although he was a DNP in Friday's practice, head coach Jerod Mayo suggested Barmore would play Sunday against the Rams and would likely be limited to 10-to-20 defensive snaps, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. Barmore had a breakout season in 2023, during which he logged 64 tackles (39 solo), including 8.5 sacks, six pass defenses and one forced fumble across 17 regular-season games.

Could return in Week 11 Barmore (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact The Alabama product has yet to take the field this season after being diagnosed with blood clots in August. Barmore appears to be trending toward not playing Sunday despite his questionable designation, as he practiced in a limited fashion Thursday before downgrading to a DNP on Friday. If Barmore cannot suit up in Week 11, expect Jeremiah Pharms to see additional work with the Patriots' first-team defensive line.

Returns to practice Thursday Barmore (illness) participated at practice Thursday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact As expected, Barmore was able to make his long-anticipated return to practice ahead of Week 11 after a blood clot diagnosis back in August had kept him off the field up to that point. If he can practice in full Friday, there's a good chance he'd suit up for Sunday's game versus the Rams.
