Eli Raridon - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

A.J. Brown struggles in his return for Patriots after missing 4 games with a high ankle sprain

2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Productive in Week 5 victory Raridon caught all five of his targets for 57 yards during the Patriots' 45-17 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Impact The rookie third-rounder accumulated three catches (on four targets) for 44 yards and a score in each of his first three games, and he eclipsed those receiving marks (except the score) during Sunday's blowout win. His five catches co-led the Patriots with Efton Chism, and the duo finished tied for the third-most receiving yards behind Kyle Williams (91) and DeMario Douglas (65). Raridon's 43 offensive snaps were only slightly behind top tight end Hunter Henry (48), and the former has played more than 50 percent of New England's offensive snaps in each of the last two weeks. The Patriots will stay home for Week 6 to host the Jets on Oct. 18 in an AFC East divisional showdown.

OCTOBER 5 • Associated Press

Questionable to return Sunday Raridon (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Buffalo.

Impact Raridon didn't play in Week 3 against the Jaguars due to a hamstring injury. However, an ankle injury could mean he won't be back in Week 4. If Raridon can't return, Cameron Latu could see more work behind Hunter Henry.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Back in action in Week 4 Raridon (thigh) is listed as active Sunday at Buffalo.

Impact After missing Week 3 due to a thigh injury, Raridon was limited on all three Week 4 practice reports and then listed as questionable for Sunday's contest. Now that the rookie third-rounder is confirmed to be available, he'll hop back in as the No. 2 TE behind Hunter Henry, which so far has equated to a 2-32-1 line on two targets through the first two games of his career.

Chance to return for Week 4 Raridon (thigh) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Raridon was a limited participant in all three practices during Week 4 prep, which was enough for the rookie third-rounder to draw the questionable tag for Sunday's AFC East showdown. If Raridon is cleared to play, then he would slot behind Hunter Henry on the tight end depth chart ahead of Cameron Latu and Tanner Arkin.

OCTOBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Another limited practice session Thursday Raridon (thigh) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Raridon was limited again Thursday. If the thigh injury keeps the rookie off the field in the Week 4 meeting with the Bills, Tanner Arkin could see more snaps behind Hunter Henry and Cameron Latu.

OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to open Week 4 prep Raridon (thigh) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

Impact A thigh injury prevented the rookie third-rounder from playing against the Jaguars in Week 3. He was limited in all three practices prior to New England's loss to Jacksonville, so he may have to log a full practice over the next two days to have a realistic chance of playing Sunday against Buffalo.

Won't play Week 3 Raridon (thigh) is listed as inactive Week 3 against the Jaguars.

Impact Raridon saw the field for 36 snaps in Week 1, but his Week 2 showing was cut significantly after exiting the game with a thigh injury. After missing practice Thursday and Friday, the rookie will ultimately miss his first career game, paving the way for Cameron Latu and Tanner Arkin to work in a reserve capacity behind starting tight end Hunter Henry.

Questionable for Sunday Raridon (thigh) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Impact Raridon started the week as a limited participant Wednesday before downgrading to a non-participant in the Thursday and Friday practice sessions. The rookie third-rounder has still managed to draw the questionable tag despite consecutive absences, meaning the 22-year-old may have been granted some additional rest in anticipation of Sunday's contest.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Raridon (thigh) did not practice Thursday.

Impact Raridon was injured in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers. He practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday. However, the 22-year-old appeared to take a step back by missing Thursday's session. Raridon will have another opportunity to practice Friday or else he may carry an injury designation ahead of the Week 3 meeting with Jacksonville. The rookie appeared in both of the Patriots' games to begin the 2026 campaign, catching both targets for 32 yards and one touchdown.

SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to open week Raridon (thigh) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact Raridon was forced to leave Sunday's 20-3 win over the Steelers in the first half with a thigh injury, and he was unable to return to the game. The tight end's ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday is a positive sign, and he'll have two more chances to log a full practice before the team faces the Jaguars in Week 3.
