Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Catches TD in Week 10
Polk, who was on the field for 26 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught his only target in the contest for a two-yard TD.
The rookie was in the Patriots' starting lineup along with -Kayshon Boutte, but Polk continues to see limited volume. That said, it's plausible that the 2024 second-rounder could pick up the pace in terms of his usage and production as the season rolls along, with the team's focus being on the future.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Limited snaps in return
Polk logged nine of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Titans, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Polk, who was inactive in Week 8 due to a concussion, returned to the mix Sunday but saw limited playing time and didn't catch his only target. He's behind DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne in the Patriots' wideout pecking order, making Polk an unreliable fantasy lineup option.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Cleared for Week 9 action
Polk (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Polk was inactive for this past Sunday's game against the Jets, but after practicing fully both Thursday and Friday, he's been cleared for Week 9 action. However, while returning to a New England wideout corps that features DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne, Polk profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option versus Tennessee. Through seven games to date, the 2024 second-rounder has recorded 10 catches for 78 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Practices fully Thursday
Polk (concussion) practiced fully Thursday.
After being limited Wednesday, Polk upgraded to all activity a day later, which has the 2024 second-rounder trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. If he's cleared for Week 9 action, Polk would profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option in a New England wideout corps that features DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Returns to limited practice
Polk (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Polk didn't practice in any fashion last week before being ruled out ahead of Sunday's win over the Jets, but he'll take a step forward in his recovery from the concussion by opening Week 9 prep as a limited participant. If the rookie second-round pick clears the five-step concussion protocol and is available Sunday against the Titans, he would be part of a New England wideout group that includes DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Back at practice
Polk (concussion) was present for practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Polk didn't practice at all during Week 8, so his presence at Wednesday's session bodes well for his chances of being cleared to play Sunday against the Titans. If Polk is available this weekend, however, his role would be somewhat muddled. The 2024 second-round pick has struggled with drops this season and has been limited to 10 catches for 78 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets through seven appearances.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Won't play Sunday
Polk (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Mike Dussault of the Patriots' official site reports.
Polk, who was unable to practice this week, thus will target a potential return to action Sunday, Nov. 3 against the Titans. In Polk's absence this weekend, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne figure to lead the Patriots' Week 8 WR corps, with K.J. Osborn and Tyquan Thornton mixing in.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Still not practicing
Polk (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
After missing Wednesday's session, Polk now has one more chance to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets. If the 2024 second-round pick is unavailable this weekend, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Kendrick Bourne would be in line to lead the Patriots' wideout corps.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: In concussion protocol
Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo said Wednesday that Polk has been placed in the NFL's concussion protocol, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
After logging 34 snaps in this past Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars, Polk was forced out of the contest late in the fourth quarter with what has now been confirmed as a concussion. The 2024 second-round pick will now need to clear the five-step protocol in order to be available this weekend against the Jets. Through seven games to date, Polk has caught 10 of his 26 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown, with drops having been an issue for the Washington product early on in his professional career.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: Forced out of Sunday's contest
The Patriots announced that Polk is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London due to a head injury.
Polk will most likely be sent in for a concussion evaluation before the Patriots determine whether he's fit to return, but given that the announcement of his head injury didn't come until late in the fourth quarter, it's likely that his day is already over in any case. Before leaving the game, Polk failed to corral any of his three targets from quarterback Drake Maye. The rookie second-round pick continues to see ample playing time but has struggled to get on the same page with Maye and Jacoby Brissett this season; he's hauled in just 10 of his 26 targets and is averaging a lowly 3.0 yards per target.

Patriots' Ja'Lynn Polk: One catch in Week 6
Polk, who recorded 43 of a possible 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 41-21 loss to the Texans, caught one of his four targets in the contest for four yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.comm reports.
Per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald, Polk had one drop in the contest and got his hands on another pass that fell incomplete. With that in mind, coach Jerod Mayo acknowledged that the 2024 second-rounder's game has room for growth. "I think he just needs to get over this mental hump," Mayo said of Polk. "You've got to eliminate the dropped passes. You've got to be better at blocking, which he did a great job in college at that and at times throughout the season. He just has to continue to grow, and he has to work harder. He has to pay more attention to the details, and we fully expect him to grow into a receiver that's dependable on run and pass downs." Looking ahead, Polk figures to have more productive days as he builds on-field chemistry with fellow rookie Drake Maye, who has taken over as the Patriots' starting QB, but for now the wideout out of Washington isn't a high-percentage fantasy option.
