Patriots elevate two players from practice squad ahead of Bills matchup

The New England Patriots have elevated safety Mike Brown and cornerback Kindle Vildor from their practice squad in preparation for their Week 4 game against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. These roster moves come as the team copes with significant injuries in the secondary. Starting safety Craig Woodson is questionable after missing last week’s game, while backup safety Dell Pettus is on injured reserve. The Patriots will also be without defensive tackle Christian Barmore against a formidable Bills offense, adding to concerns regarding their defense ahead of the matchup in Orchard Park.
