The New England Patriots are reportedly on the cusp of welcoming back star cornerback Christian Gonzalez to the lineup.

After nearly suiting up in Week 3 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers, Gonzalez has been trending in the right direction ahead of the Patriots’ Week 4 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

Senior NFL insider Dianna Russini reported on Saturday that the 23-year-old was “ready to roll” for Sunday’s game.

“Patriots CB Christian Gonzalez has worked hard on his hamstring recovery and is ready to roll,” Russini posted on Bluesky.
