Christian Gonzalez entered concussion protocol after leaving the fourth quarter of the Patriots' playoff win over the Chargers with a head injury and not returning. His availability for the upcoming divisional-round playoff game remains uncertain. Next Gen Stats reports he allowed no catches on five targets across 26 coverage snaps and leads the league with minus-9.7 receptions over expected this season, including the playoffs. Coach Mike Vrabel praised Gonzalez's play and versatility while noting protocol status.

Reserves include Charles Woods and Kobee Minor; Alex Austin has not played since Nov. 23 due to a wrist injury.
