"Gonzalez has been a limited participant in practice each day since returning to the field on Sept. 17 as he ramps up to make his 2025 season debut. The star cornerback suffered the ailment on July 28 and did not practice for nearly two months. After a lengthy recovery time, it seems like Gonzalez's chances of suiting up versus the Panthers are high."
"New England could have used a player like Gonzalez through the first three games of this season. The Patriots are ranked 30th in the NFL in passing defense, allowing an average of 256.3 passing yards per game. CBs Alex Austin and Carlton Davis III have been shredded by quarterbacks in losses (LVR's Geno Smith and PIT's Aaron Rodgers), unable to fill Gonzalez's shoes successfully."
Christian Gonzalez (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 4 after returning to practice on Sept. 17 and being a limited participant while ramping up for a 2025 season debut. He suffered the injury on July 28 and missed nearly two months of practice. Head coach Mike Vrabel reported that Gonzalez looked good in practice and has taken most reps, noting the team will assess his response to speed work before deciding. The Patriots rank 30th in NFL passing defense, allowing 256.3 passing yards per game. Cornerbacks Alex Austin and Carlton Davis III have struggled, and Jared Wilson is out with ankle/knee issues. Linebacker K'Lavon Chaisson and guard Mike Onwenu are also questionable.
