Jahlani Tavai reportedly sidelined until training camp with calf injury
Briefly

New England Patriots linebacker Jahlani Tavai will be sidelined until at least late July due to a calf injury sustained during organized team activities. The injury occurred during an 11-on-11 drill, leading to Tavai needing assistance off the field. He has been a key part of the defensive unit, often alongside new addition Robert Spillane. In Tavai's absence, players like Christian Elliss are expected to step up. Patriots are concluding OTAs and will enter mandatory minicamp shortly thereafter, raising new challenges for the linebacker corps.
