Reports: Patriots LT Will Campbell has sprained MCL

New England Patriots left tackle Will Campbell is believed to have a sprained MCL and is awaiting MRI results on his right knee, multiple outlets reported Monday.

The rookie blind-side protector for quarterback Drake Maye was carted off the field during the third quarter of New England's 26-20 victory Sunday in Cincinnati.

Campbell, 21, is a candidate for injured reserve with the hopes he can return in time for the playoffs for the Patriots (10-2), who won their ninth consecutive game.

Campbell, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has started all 12 games. He appeared despondent after the injury, draping a towel over his head as he rode in the back of a cart to the visitors' locker room.

Vederian Lowe replaced Campbell at left tackle following the injury.
