Brandon Bolden, Gunner Olszewski, and Nick Folk listed questionable for Monday's game against the Buffalo Bills. If Bolden were to miss the backfield would likely be split between Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson making them both viable plays on the showdown slate. Olszewski is not expected to play a major role on offense for the Patriots but plays a crucial role as a returner on special teams, though this isn't very relevant for DFS purposes. Nick Folk has been listed as questionable the past few weeks and has been able to suit up for every game so this is likely to be the case again on Monday, though the expected weather will make it difficult to confidently roster kickers.

In usual Belichick style the New England injury report is a long one with Damien Harris, Hunter Henry, Jonnu Smith, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Nick Folk all listed questionable for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans.If Damien Harris or Rhamondre Stevenson were to be ruled out the other would carry the load with Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor also available to mix in. If Hunter Henry or Jonnu Smith were unable to suit up the other would be the primary tight end for the Patriots with Devin Asiasi and Matt LaCosse available to back them up. Nick Folk has been listed questionable the last few weeks but has been able to suit up every game so there is little cause for concern here. It will be important to check inactives 90 minutes prior to kickoff as some running back and/or tight end value could open up for the Patriots.

Damien Harris and Gunner Olszewski have not been listed on injury report for Thursday meaning they have cleared concussion protocol, while Brandon Bolden, N'Keal Harry, Jonnu Smith, and Nick Folk have all been listed questionable. Harris should return to his role seeing the bulk of the work in the Patriots backfield with Rhamondre Stevenson and Bolden (questionable) also mixing in. Olszewski should return to his role on special teams and does not figure to be DFS relevant. If Jonnu Smith were unable to suit up Hunter Henry would once again be in line to play almost all of the tight end snaps and play an important role in the Patriots passing attack, he would need to be considered on the showdown slate. Nick Folk has been listed questionable ahead of multiple games this season but has always been able to play so this is the expected outcome for Thursday. If a kicker is elevated from the practice squad tomorrow though that would be cause for concern.

Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson, N'Keal Harry, Jonnu Smith, Gunner Olszewski, and Nick Folk have all been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. If Harris and Stevenson were to miss Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor would lead the Patriots backfield and become top value options based on expected workload. If Harry and/or Olszewski were to miss the Patriots would lose some receiver depth but this ultimately wouldn't be too DFS relevant. If Smith were to miss, Hunter Henry would become a better value option at tight end with touchdown upside. It will be important to check the inactives list 90 minutes prior to kickoff has some value could open up.

Brandon Bolden and Nick Folk have been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Jets. If Bolden were unable to suit up it is likely that J.J. Taylor would be activated to help fill his role in the Patriots backfield while continuing to be led by Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson. Nick Folk has been listed as questionable the last few games but has been able to suit up for every single one. If he were unable to go, the newly signed Riley Patterson would need to be elevated from the practice squad to kick on Sunday

Damien Harris, J.J. Taylor, and Nick Folk have all been listed as questionable for Sunday when the Patriots are set to take on the Dallas Cowboys. If Harris or Taylor were to be ruled out the Patriots' other running backs (Brandon Bolden and Rhamondre Stevenson) would be forced to carry the load making them all slightly better plays. It is unlikely that true winner would emerge though due to the way that Coach Bill Belichick deploys his running backs. If Nick Folk were unable to suit up the Patriots might have to get creative with their kicking duties as the only other kicker on the roster is on the IR.

Brian Hoyer and Nick Folk have been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday. Hoyer is expected to backup Mac Jones. Nick Folk will likely handle the kicking duties though it remains to be seen what happens with Quinn Nordin who was expected to be the Patriots kicker.

Nick Folk is expected to sign with the Patriots Saturday and kick for them Sunday.
