Patriots' Christian Barmore: Diagnosed with blood clots
In a statement released by the New England Patriots on Sunday, Christian Barmore was treated by doctors over the weekend after being diagnosed with blood clots and there is no timetable for his return.It's a major blow for Barmore, who signed a four-year, $92 million contract extension with the Patriots in April after recording a career-high 8.5 sacks across 17 regular-season games in 2023. The good news for the 2021 second-round pick is that the blood clots were caught by doctors before they caused a serious issue on the field, but his status for the 2024 season is truly up in the air. If Barmore were to miss extended time, Armon Watts and Deatrich Wise could be candidates to start on New England's defensive front alongside Keion White, Davon Godchaux, Matthew Judon and Josh Uche.
