Mitchell injured
Safety Mel Mitchell is likely lost for the season after suffering a biceps injury. His agent, Ken Harris, told the Boston Globe that Mitchell will undergo surgery as early as Monday.
Mitchell was expected to be a core member of the Patriots' special teams unit. He was signed as a free agent this offseason after playing with the Saints for four seasons.
The Patriots had been giving significant practice time to special teams in recent days and Mitchell was injured in a Thursday practice.
LOOK AHEAD: With the Patriots not practicing Saturday and Sunday, things should be quiet. Barring any unexpected transactions, our next update will be Monday around noon, after Bill Belichick's scheduled press conference.
