Lucas Patrick Injury News & Updates
Nov 16, 2025
Good to go Week 11
Patrick (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Patrick popped up on Thursday's practice report as a DNP due to a calf injury, but he returned to practice Friday and has been cleared to play Week 11 after going through pregame warmups. He'll be available as a depth option on the Bengals' offensive line.
Oct 16, 2025
Cleared to play vs. Pittsburgh
Patrick (calf) is active for Thursday's game against the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
The Bengals reinstated Patrick from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game, and the veteran offensive lineman should reclaim his starting spot at right guard while Dalton Risner returns to a reserve role.
Oct 16, 2025
Activated from IR
The Bengals activated Patrick (calf) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game against the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was officially listed as questionable for Thursday's AFC North clash, but his activation from IR indicates that he is trending toward making his return, per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. Patrick would likely reclaim his starting job at right guard if he is cleared to play, which would revert Dalton Risner to a reserve role.
Oct 11, 2025
Won't play against Green Bay
Patrick (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Patrick's 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Wednesday. He earned the questionable tag for Sunday's game after ending the week with back-to-back full practices, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a calf injury to play against Green Bay. Patrick hasn't played since Week 1 against the Browns, and his next chance to play is Thursday at home against the Steelers.
Oct 10, 2025
Could return Sunday
Patrick (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Patrick logged consecutive full sessions to end Cincinnati's week of practice, suggesting he's trending toward returning in Week 6. However, the first-year Bengal must still be activated to the team's active roster in order to play Sunday. If Patrick is activated in time, he's expected to operate as Cincinnati's starting right guard.
Oct 8, 2025
Practice window opens
Patrick (calf) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
After missing the Bengals' last four games due to a calf injury sustained in the Week 1 win over the Browns, Patrick appears to be nearing a return. He now has 21 days to be added to Cincinnati's active roster before reverting to IR. Once activated, he's expected to operate as the team's top right guard.
Sep 9, 2025
Placed on IR
The Bengals placed Patrick (calf) on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered a calf injury during Sunday's Week 1 win over the Browns and wasn't able to return to the game. His placement on IR means he'll need to sit out at least four games. Dalton Risner will likely move into a starting role at right guard in Patrick's stead.
Sep 8, 2025
Will miss time with calf issue
Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Patrick will be out for at least one week due to a calf injury, Ben Baby of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered a calf injury early in the second quarter of Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns. Dalton Risner -- who signed with the Bengals on Aug. 28 -- took over at right guard and should start in Week 2 against the Jaguars due to Patrick's injury.
Sep 7, 2025
Downgraded to out Sunday
Patrick (calf) has been ruled out from returning to Sunday's Week 1 contest against Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was initially deemed doubtful after he injured his calf early in the second quarter, and he's now been ruled out. Dalton Risner took over at right guard and will likely remain there while Patrick is sidelined. Patrick's practice participation (or lack thereof) next week should provide clarity about his chances of suiting up in Week 2.
Sep 7, 2025
Injures calf, doubtful to return
Patrick (calf) has been deemed doubtful to return to Sunday's Week 1 matchup versus Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was hurt early in the second quarter and limped off the field. His doubtful designation suggests he's unlikely to get back on the field Sunday. Dalton Risner has entered the game at right guard.
Sep 3, 2025
Healthy for Week 1
Patrick (undisclosed) did not appear on the Bengals' injury report Wednesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick sustained an undisclosed injury during the preseason, but he's now all set to go in Week 1. The 32-year-old will operate as Cincinnati's starting right guard in Sunday's regular-season opener against Cleveland.
Aug 20, 2025
Considered day-to-day
Patrick is considered day-to-day with an undisclosed injury, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered what appeared to be a serious injury during Cincinnati's second preseason game. However, the issue is now considered relatively short-term. Rookie Jalen Rivers is getting first-team reps at right guard for the time being, but it remains to be seen how the Bengals will align their offensive line to begin the regular season.
Aug 8, 2025
Plays in preseason loss
Patrick (leg) suited up for Thursday's 34-27 preseason loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was injured in drills July 28 but was healthy enough to suit up for game action less than two weeks later. He's competing with Cody Ford for the starting right guard spot.
Jul 28, 2025
Leaves Friday's drills
Patrick left Friday's drills with a limp and was later spotted wearing a compression sleeve on his right leg, ESPN's Ben Baby reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick is competing with Cody Ford for the Bengals' right guard job after spending last season with the Saints.
Mar 21, 2025
Gets one-year deal with Cincinnati
The Bengals signed Patrick (knee) to a one-year, $2.1 million contract Friday, John Sheeran of A to Z Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick started 10 of his 11 regular-season appearances with the Saints last season, working at both center and left guard. He missed the last few weeks of the regular season with New Orleans due to a knee injury but figures to be ready for the start of offseason activities with his new team.
Dec 28, 2024
Officially placed on IR
The Saints placed Patrick (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Patrick injured his knee on the Saints' final offensive drive during their Week 16 loss to the Packers. He was already ruled out for the final two games of the regular season and his placement on IR is simply a procedural move. With Erik McCoy (elbow) also placed on IR, Shane Lemieux is expected to start at center against the Raiders on Sunday.
Dec 24, 2024
Done for 2024
Interim head coach Darren Rizzi said Tuesday that Patrick will miss the final two games of the regular season due to a knee injury he picked up during Monday's 34-0 loss to the Packers, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered the injury on the Saints' final offensive drive of Monday's game. The 31-year-old lineman will be sidelined for the final two regular-season games of 2024, and he is getting second opinions to determine whether surgery is required for his injury, per Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football. Patrick started in 10 of 11 games and played center and left guard.
Dec 6, 2024
Playing in Week 14
Patrick (calf) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick opened the Saints' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions before logging a full workload Friday, indicating that he's moved past his calf issue. With Nick Saldiveri (knee) sidelined Sunday, Patrick is expected to serve as New Orleans' starting left guard.
Nov 29, 2024
Ruled out for Week 13
Patrick (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was unable to practice all week due to a calf injury, and he will miss a third straight game as a result. If Erik McCoy (groin) is unable to play Sunday, Shane Lemieux would be the next man up to start at center.
Nov 15, 2024
Out for Week 11
Patrick (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick has been unable to practice all week due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 9 against the Panthers, and he will be sidelined for a second straight game as a result. With the Saints on a bye Week 12, Patrick's next chance at suiting up will be Week 13 against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 1. Erik McCoy (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game but could be activated off IR and start at center, per Rod Walker of The New Orleans Advocate.
Nov 8, 2024
Won't play Sunday
Patrick (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old was held out of practice all week after sustaining a calf injury in the Saints' Week 9 loss to the Panthers, so it's no surprise he won't suit up Sunday. Expect Connor McGovern to serve as New Orleans' top center in Patrick's stead.
Nov 3, 2024
Injures calf
Patrick was unable to return to Sunday's 23-22 loss to the Panthers due to a calf injury.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was given a questionable tag, but he ultimately was unable to return. Thus, his status for Week 10 versus the Falcons is up in the air. Connor McGovern would likely be in line to replace him at center if needed.
Oct 17, 2024
Will play Thursday night
Patrick (chest) is active for Thursday's game against Denver.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was sidelined for Week 6 against the Buccaneers due to a chest injury. He was listed as a limited participant in practice Tuesday and Wednesday, and he will return Thursday and likely reclaim his starting role at center from Connor McGovern.
Oct 13, 2024
Out for Week 6
Patrick (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick has been banged up with several issues throughout the season, including toe, groin and chest injuries. This will be his first full game missed, likely leaving Connor McGovern as the starting center.
Oct 7, 2024
Suiting up Monday night
Patrick (groin) is active ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Patrick missed practice both Thursday and Friday due to a groin injury, but it now appears he'll play through the pain Monday night. Expect Patrick to serve as the Saints' top left guard in Week 5.
Oct 4, 2024
Misses Friday's practice
Patrick (groin) didn't practice Friday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Three of New Orleans' starting offensive linemen already had injury designations ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Chiefs, including center Shane Lemieux (ankle). Patrick was in line to start for Lemieux if he couldn't suit up in Week 5, but it now appears that Patrick may not be able to play either.
Sep 14, 2024
Good to go for Week 2
Patrick (toe) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick injured his toe early in the second half of the Saints' Week 1 win over the Panthers and did not return. He was unable to practice Wednesday, but he logged back-to-back limited practices to end the week and he will start at left guard Sunday.
Sep 8, 2024
Will not return
Patrick (toe) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick went down early in the second half and was replaced by Nick Saldiveri, who will continue filling in at left guard.
Sep 8, 2024
Questionable to return
Patrick (toe) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Nick Saldiveri is the next man up at left guard for the Saints. Patrick signed a one-year deal with New Orleans in the offseason after starting 15 of the 16 games in which he played for Chicago in 2023.
May 12, 2024
Headed to Big Easy
The Saints signed Patrick (calf) to a one-year contract Sunday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick appeared in 23 games with 20 starts over the past two seasons with Chicago. The 30-year-old was the team's starting center for almost the entire 2023 campaign, but he ended the year on IR due to an unspecified calf injury. Whe the nature of this issue was never revealed, Patrick now appears to be healthy again. He should now provide depth along the interior of New Orleans' offensive line.
Jan 6, 2024
Heads to IR
Patrick (back) was placed on the Bears' injured reserve list Saturday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick has been playing through a back injury since Nov. 19, but he popped up on the Bears' injury report Friday with a calf injury. He will now miss Chicago's regular-season finale against the Packers. In Patrick's absence, Dan Feeney is set to take over at center.
Dec 31, 2023
Active Sunday
Patrick (back) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old offensive lineman was able to log back-to-back limited sessions to end Chicago's week of practice, and it now seems as if he'll be able to play through his back issue in Week 17. Patrick is expected to assume his normal duties as the Bears' starting center Sunday.
Nov 24, 2023
Practices in full
Patrick (back) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
ANALYSIS
The veteran offensive lineman was able to log a full practice session Friday after recording a DNP on Thursday, and it now seems as if he's moved past his back issue. Patrick has made 18 appearances for Chicago since signing with the team back in 2022, starting 15 of those games.
Nov 19, 2023
Suffers back injury
Patrick is doubtful to return to Sunday's game after suffering a back injury, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick likely suffered his back injury during the first half of today's game, and there's a slim chance that he's able to return. Dan Feeney has stepped in at center on the Bears' offensive line.
Oct 29, 2023
Active for SNF
Patrick (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was a late addition to the Bears' injury report with a questionable tag, but he'll be able to suit up in prime time. He's appeared in the team's first seven games of the season.
Oct 29, 2023
Questionable for Sunday night
Patrick is dealing with a back injury and is questionable for Sunday night's contest against the Chargers, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
With Patrick now on the injury report, the Bears may have to shuffle their offensive line more than they already have. Cody Whitehair -- who is the normal starting center -- is shifted to right guard with Nate Davis (ankle) ruled out for Week 8. If Patrick is unable to play, Doug Kramer would fill in at the starting center position.
Oct 15, 2023
Cleared for Week 6
Patrick (concussion) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Patrick left the Bears' Week 5 win over Washington early due to a concussion. He was listed as questionable versus Minnesota after clearing protocols and returning to practice Friday. He'll presumably handle his usual duties as Chicago's starting center in Week 6.
Oct 5, 2023
Out for game
Patrick will not return to Thursday's game against the Commanders after getting examined for a concussion, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
The center has started all five games for the Bears this season. Cody Whitehair moved from guard to center to replace him.
Jun 7, 2023
Participating at OTAs
Patrick (toe) has been practicing during OTAs, Gene Chamberlain of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick signed a two-year deal with Chicago last offseason but ended the 2022 campaign on injured reserve after undergoing surgery in November. The veteran offensive lineman should be good to go for the start of 2023 and will likely serve as the backup center behind Cody Whitehair.
Nov 23, 2022
Out for season following surgery
Patrick (toe) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2022 campaign after undergoing surgery, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was placed on IR at the end of October due to a toe injury, but it doesn't appear like he made much progress and elected to undergo surgery that'll sideline him for the remainder of the season. Sam Mustipher has operated as the team's starting center in Patrick's absence.
Oct 27, 2022
Moves to IR
The Bears placed Patrick (toe) on injured reserve Thursday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick will now miss at least the next four games while sitting on IR, after he departed Monday's 33-14 win over the Patriots with a toe injury. Sam Mustipher is slated to replace the 313-pounder at center for the time being.
Oct 24, 2022
Exits Monday
Patrick (toe) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Patriots, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was carted to the Bears' locker room after sustaining a toe injury at some point during the first quarter. The veteran has played multiple positions on the interior of Chicago's offensive line this season, and his absence will leave Sam Mustipher to step in at center against New England, per Adam Jahns of The Athletic.
Oct 13, 2022
Returns versus Washington
Patrick (head) returned during the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Commanders, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick appears to have cleared his concussion evaluation given his ability to step back in at left guard. As a result, either Michael Schofield or Teven Jenkins should finish out Monday's game at right guard.
Oct 13, 2022
Forced to exit Monday
Patrick (head) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Commanders, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick spent time in the medical tent on Chicago's sideline before heading to the locker room to be evaluated for a potential concussion, per Cronin. In his absence, Michael Schofield will shift over to left guard while Teven Jenkins steps back in at right guard.
Sep 8, 2022
Wearing cast, avoids injury report
Patrick (thumb) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered a broken thumb during training camp, but that won't impact his ability to suit up for Sunday's season opener against the 49ers. Per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, Patrick has experience playing with a cast and doesn't anticipate his effectiveness to be impacted while wearing one. However, the starting center is still facing the task of protecting Justin Fields from one of the league's better defensive fronts Week 1.
Sep 5, 2022
Back at practice
Patrick (thumb) returned to practice Monday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick suffered a broken thumb during training camp, but his return to the field is a great step forward in the recovery process. Although there's no word yet regarding the 313-pounder's Week 1 status, Patrick will be the presumed starting center for Chicago when he's medically cleared for game action. Expect to hear more about the 29-year-old's availability for Sunday's contest against the 49ers when the team releases its official practice/injury report later this week.
Jul 29, 2022
Will likely need surgery
Patrick is expected to require surgery on his right hand, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick signed a two-year, $8 million deal with the Bears this offseason and was expected to open the campaign as the team's starting center. There's optimism that he'll be able to return before Week 1, but Chicago may be without one of its top offseason acquisitions to start the season.
Mar 16, 2022
New Chicago center
Patrick agreed to terms on a two-year, $8 million contract with the Bears on Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick is a former member of the Packers, but he'll now bring his talents elsewhere in the division to protect second-year quarterback Justin Fields. The 28-year-old's contract includes $4 million guaranteed for the 2022 season.
Jan 17, 2022
Activated from COVID-19 list
The Packers activated Patrick from the COVID-19 list Monday,
ANALYSIS
Patrick returns to the active roster after five days on the COVID-19 list and should start at right guard in the Packers' divisional round matchup against the 49ers on Saturday. Patrick spent much of the season as the team's starting center in place of injured rookie Josh Myers who returned to action in Week 18.
Jan 12, 2022
Lands on COVID-19 list
The Packers placed Patrick (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
It's not yet clear whether Patrick has tested positive for the virus. He'll have an additional week to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols since the Packers have a first-round bye in the playoffs, but Royce Newman could take on a starting role in the divisional round if Patrick is unavailable.
Dec 5, 2020
Good to go
Patrick (toe) does not have an injury designation ahead of the Packers' Week 13 matchup with the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Patrick injured his toe in last week's victory over the Bears and was unable to return. Fortunately, it looks the Packers were just erring on the side of caution with the situation. Barring any setbacks, look for him to resume his usual responsibilities at right guard when the Eagles come to Lambeau Field.
Nov 29, 2020
Hurts toe late against Bears
Patrick (toe) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Green Bay shuffled its offensive line as a result of Patrick's fourth-quarter injury, but his removal may have been precautionary, as the team was nursing a sizable lead. Patrick's status in the upcoming week of practice should help shed light on his status for the team's Week 13 date with the Eagles.
Sep 17, 2020
All clear Thursday
Patrick (shoulder) was a full participant for Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After undergoing additional tests on his injured shoulder, Patrick avoided a serious injury after leaving Sunday's game against Minnesota. Now healthy, Patrick is expected to continue his role as the team's starting right guard.
Sep 14, 2020
Considered probable for Week 2
Patrick received positive news from the additional tests on his shoulder and is expected to play Sunday versus the Lions, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
This is excellent news for the Packers, especially following unfortunate news that Lane Taylor (knee) could miss the rest of the season. If that's the case, Patrick will likely start at right guard moving forward.
Sep 13, 2020
Ruled out
Patrick (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of the team's Week 1 contest against the Vikings, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Patrick exited early in the game with a shoulder ailment, and he'll be forced to miss the remainder of the contest. He was a versatile part of the Packers' offensive line and will leave them thin in his absence.
Sep 13, 2020
Sustains shoulder injury
Patrick is questionable to return to the team's Week 1 contest after sustaining a shoulder injury.
ANALYSIS
Patrick was serving as the team's left guard early on against the Vikings. It's currently unclear how he sustained the injury or if he will be forced to miss a significant amount of time.
