Michel Injury Not As Bad As Thought

The New England Patriots may be breathing a sigh of relief. RB Sony Michel has no structural damage to his knee and is considered week to week.

ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting is reporting sources tell him that a MRI showed the best case scenario.

Michel left the game vs the Bears yesterday in the second quarter when his knee got twisted on a tackle.

The rookie from Georgia had knee issues in college and many feared the worst with yesterday's injury.

In his Monday teleconference, Patriots coach Bill Belichick would not say anything about the injury other than to say there will be an update when the team is required to do so later in the week.

NOTE: The Patriots play the Bills in the Monday Night Football game next week. The game is live on Sports Radio 92.9 The Ticket.
