By Reice ShipleyShareNewsweek is a Trust Project memberThe New England Patriots came into Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals as one of the most dangerous contenders in the AFC. However, that status may change following several potentially serious injuries to key staples on their offensive line.
Patriots left tackle Will Campbell has been everything the organization envisioned he would be when they selected him with the No. 4 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The former LSU product has played a significant role in the team.
Unfortunately, Campbell's status for the foreseeable future seems to be in jeopardy after sustaining a potentially serious injury in Sunday's matchup.

In the third quarter of Sunday's game, Campbell's leg was rolled up on while blocking on a run play. Right away, it was clear that the former top pick was in considerable pain.

Shortly after Campbell was helped to the sideline and taken to the blue medical tent, he was loaded onto the cart and taken to the locker room.

The injury to Campbell came after another very concerning injury for New England in the first half. Starting left guard Jared Wilson was also carted to the locker room earlier in the game with a lower-body injury.

It's ultimately unclear at this point exactly how serious either injury is for the Patriots. That being said, losing two starting offensive lineman for any period of time would likely have a drastic effect on their offense's success moving forward. So Patriots fans will certainly be hoping for good news on the status of Campbell and Wilson, regardless of the outcome of Sunday's game.
