Injury updates and more for the Patriots’ final game of the season.
The New England Patriots entered Super Bowl weekend with two team captains listed on their injury report. Edge linebacker Harold Landry and off-the-ball linebacker Robert Spillane were both deemed as questionable for the game against the Seattle Seahawks because of respective knee and ankle injuries.
Both are good to go for Super Bowl LX.
Landry had been dealing with his knee injury for a while, and as a result was held out of the final two weeks of the regular season. He returned for the playoffs, but was limited to 37 snaps over the first two games before being made inactive for the AFC Championship Game.
Spillane had missed the final four regular season games because of an ankle injury but was back to his usual full workload by the time the postseason began. However, he sustained another ankle injury early against the Denver Broncos two weeks ago and only returned to practice on Thursday. Despite being limited in both sessions since, he too has been cleared.
The Patriots’ inactives, meanwhile, looks as follows.
Patriots inactives
- QB3 Tommy DeVito
- WR Efton Chism III
- TE C.J. Dippre
- OT Marcus Bryant
- OL Caedan Wallace
- ED Bradyn Swinson
- CB Kobee Minor
With Harold Landry and Robert Spillane both active, there are no surprises among the Patriots’ inactives. All the players listed above are emergency-only options at their respective positions at this time, and healthy scratches for Sunday’s game.
Besides the aforementioned Robert Spillane and Harold Landry, the Patriots also had a third player listed as questionable on their injury report. However, despite being a full practice participant throughout the week, rookie defensive tackle Joshua Farmer was not activated from injured reserve ahead of the Super Bowl.
Seahawks inactives
- QB3 Jalen Milroe
- FB Robbie Ouzts
- TE Nick Kallerup
- OL Mason Richman
- DT Brandon Pili
- LB Jared Ivey
- LB Chazz Surratt
The Seahawks had one player listed as questionable on Friday’s final injury report, and he did not make the game day roster: fullback Robbie Ouzts is out because of a neck injury that limited him all week.
Kickoff between the Patriots and Seahawks at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara is set for 6:30 p.m. ET.
