New England announced Thursday that Barmore (illness) has been placed on the reserve/non-football illness list. The Patriots' official statement reads: "The New England Patriots are placing defensive lineman Christian Barmore on the reserve non-football illness list after he experienced some recurring symptoms that required further evaluation. We appreciate everything Christian did to return to the team this season, but our top priority is Christian's health and wellbeing. We know that he will continue to receive tremendous care and we want to ensure that he gets the time he needs to come back stronger than ever." Barmore's placement on the NFI list rules him out for the remainder of the 2024 campaign.
Barmore recorded two total tackles (both solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 34-15 loss to the Patriots. Barmore missed the Patriots' first 10 games this season due to blood clots but returned in Week 11, recording five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in the two games since his comeback. The Alabama product's snap share increased from 39 percent in Week 11 to 52 percent in Week 12, and it will likely continue to rise as he regains full football shape. Barmore is expected to remain a disruptive force for New England's defense as the Patriots host the Colts in Week 13.
Barmore (undisclosed) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Dolphins. The defensive tackle was listed as questionable, but it was likely due to the team's management of his practice workload after he missed the first 10 games of the season after getting blood clots in August. Barmore played on 20 defensive snaps in his season debut against the Rams last week, making three solo tackles.
Barmore (not injury related) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins but is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. The Patriots seem to be managing Barmore's practice workload after he was diagnosed with blood clots in August and ended up missing the first 10 games of the season before debuting in last Sunday's loss to the Rams. He played 20 snaps and logged three tackles in that game, then sat out practices Wednesday and Friday this week and logged a full session Thursday. Assuming Barmore is officially cleared ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll likely have his playing time monitored closely in Miami, but he could see a slight uptick in his snap count from Week 11.
Barmore (undisclosed) did not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Barmore continues to have his workload managed as he works his way back from blood clots that sidelined him until Week 11 against the Rams, and he finished that contest with three solo tackles while playing 20 snaps on defense. Thursday marked Barmore's only practice of the week, but he's expected to suit up for Sunday's AFC East clash.
Barmore (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. Barmore was on the Patriots' reserve/NFI list for the first 10 games of the regular season after being diagnosed with blood clots during training camp. He was activated from the NFI list Saturday, and he will make his 2024 regular-season debut Sunday. Given his lengthy absence and the fact he has just one practice under his belt, Barmore will likely operate on a snap count as the Patriots' ramp up the 2021 second-round pick, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
The Patriots activated Barmore (illness) from the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Barmore was diagnosed with blood clots in August, which prevented him from playing over the first 10 games of the regular season. Although he was a DNP in Friday's practice, head coach Jerod Mayo suggested Barmore would play Sunday against the Rams and would likely be limited to 10-to-20 defensive snaps, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. Barmore had a breakout season in 2023, during which he logged 64 tackles (39 solo), including 8.5 sacks, six pass defenses and one forced fumble across 17 regular-season games.
Barmore (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. The Alabama product has yet to take the field this season after being diagnosed with blood clots in August. Barmore appears to be trending toward not playing Sunday despite his questionable designation, as he practiced in a limited fashion Thursday before downgrading to a DNP on Friday. If Barmore cannot suit up in Week 11, expect Jeremiah Pharms to see additional work with the Patriots' first-team defensive line.
Barmore (illness) took part in practice Thursday after being designated for return from the reserve/non-football illness list, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. As expected, Barmore was able to make his long-anticipated return to practice this week after he had been off the field since being diagnosed with blood clots in August. Given the amount of time he's missed, Barmore could need to get in multiple full practices before the Patriots are comfortable adding him back to the 53-man roster and clearing him for his season debut. The standout defensive tackle recorded 8.5 sacks among his 64 tackles and forced a fumble over his 17 appearances for New England in 2023.
