Christian Gonzalez, a 2024 second-team All-Pro, has missed all practices since his July 28 hamstring injury and will not play in the Patriots' Week 1 opener, coach Mike Vrabel confirmed.

- Albert Breer flagged renewed durability concerns for Christian Gonzalez, whose contract extension eligibility after the 2025 season raises stakes amid past injuries and limited practice.
