Stephon Gilmore was reportedly absent from the New England Patriots' practice on Thursday.
CBS Boston reports Gilmore missed the portion of the Pats' practice open to the media, the first practice ahead of Monday's game against the New York Jets. The Pro Bowl cornerback is dealing with a knee injury that kept him from traveling with the team to Buffalo for last week's loss to the Bills.
Gilmore was once again added to the Patriots' injury report for the knee injury on Thursday after being ruled out of last Friday's practice. He was initially ruled questionable on last Friday's injury report, but was downgraded before the team left for Buffalo last Saturday.
N'Keal Harry (concussion), Lawrence Guy (shoulder, elbow knee), Carl Davis (concussion) and J.J. Taylor (illness) were also absent from Thursday's practice, CBS Boston reports.
Running back Sony Michel was present at Thursday's practice and team will now be able to activate him within the next 21 days after he was placed on injured reserve in early October.
Jets starting quarterback Sam Darnold was reportedly absent from his team's practice on Sunday.
