No designation for Sunday Gonzalez (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's divisional-round game against the Texans.

Impact Coach Mike Vrabel called Gonzalez questionable to face Houston earlier in the day Friday, but that appeared to be a mishap on Vrabel's part, as Gonzalez cleared protocol and is ready to go for a date with Jayden Higgins after Nico Collins (concussion) was ruled out for Sunday.

Questionable for Sunday Gonzalez (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Texans, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Despite practicing in full Thursday, Gonzalez must still clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up for Sunday's playoff contest. The third-year pro from Oregon is one of the league's premier outside cornerbacks, recording 69 total tackles and 10 passes defensed across 14 regular-season games in 2025. If active for the divisional round, Gonzalez will likely start opposite Carlton Davis to form the Patriots' top boundary corner duo.

Logs full practice Thursday Gonzalez (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Gonzalez's upgrade in practice participation indicates that he is progressing through the league's concussion protocol, which he entered following the Patriots' AFC wild-card round win over the Chargers this past Sunday. New England will host Houston on Sunday in the divisional round, and Gonzalez would need to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to play in that contest.

Patriots Get Major Christian Gonzalez Injury Update After Chargers Win Patriots' head coach Mike Vrabel confirmed that star cornerback Christian Gonzalez is currently in the NFL's concussion protocol.

JANUARY 12 • NESN.COM

In concussion protocol Gonzalez is in the NFL's concussion protocol, head coach Mike Vrabel relayed Monday, Mark Daniels of MassLive reports.

Impact Gonzalez exited in the second half of Sunday's 16-3 wild-card game win over the Chargers to be evaluated for a head injury. That evaluation evidently revealed a concussion, which means Gonzalez will need to return to full practice participation and be cleared by an independent neurologist to participate in the AFC divisional round game against the Texans or Steelers on Sunday, Jan. 18. Charles Woods would likely draw the start at outside cornerback if Gonzalez doesn't exit the concussion protocol in time.
