Sidy Sow Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Bills vs Texans game on Thursday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 12, 2025
Surprise starter Week 10
Sow started at right guard and was removed after nine snaps in Week 10's win over the Jaguars, per Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
In a surprising move, Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans opted to start Sow, a practice squad player, ahead of Laken Tomlinson and Juice Scruggs. The move backfired and Sow was removed early in the game while Scruggs finished out at right guard. That Ryans started a practice-squad player indicates the coach hasn't been pleased with how Scruggs and Tomlinson have looked in practice or games.

Making season debut
Sow (ankle) is active Sunday against the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Sow has yet to play this season while tending to the injury he suffered in the team's final preseason game. His return should be a boost to the Patriots' offensive line, as he takes over at left guard.
Sep 23, 2024
Returns to field
Sow (ankle) will practice Monday, Chris Mason of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Sow has been out of action since suffering the injury in the Patriots' final preseason game. His return to practice early in the week could put him on a trajectory to make his season debut this Sunday against the 49ers, although more clarity on the chances of that happening likely won't come until the tail end of the week.
Sep 18, 2024
Missing another week
Sow (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday night's matchup with the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Sow is in line to miss his third consecutive game after sustaining an ankle injury during the preseason. Expect Michael Jordan to get the nod at left guard while Sow continues to recover.
Sep 13, 2024
Out again for Week 2
Sow (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sow will miss his second consecutive game to open the season after he was injured during the preseason. The Patriots will likely again turn to veteran Michael Jordan as the starting left guard in Sow's place.
Sep 12, 2024
Likely out Sunday
Sow (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sow has been out of action since suffering an ankle injury in the Patriots' final preseason game. His extended absence is likely to keep him out for Week 2 against the Seahawks, even if he can return to the field in some form Friday. For Week 1, New England elevated Michael Jordan from the practice squad and gave him the start at left guard, which will likely be the plan again Sunday, if Sow ultimately misses.
Sep 6, 2024
Won't play Week 1
Sow (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Sow was held out of practice all week due to this toe issue, so it's no surprise that the second-year offensive lineman won't suit up Sunday. Expect Nick Leverett to get the nod as New England's top left guard in Sow's stead.
Sep 4, 2024
Held out Wednesday
Sow (ankle) missed Wednesday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Sow has yet to return to the field after sustaining an ankle injury during the Patriots' preseason finale Aug. 25. While the 26-year-old offensive lineman continues to recover, expect Zachary Thomas to work at left guard with New England's first-team offense.
Aug 25, 2024
Ruled out with ankle injury
Sow (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday night's preseason game against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Sow went down in the second quarter. There should be more info on the second-year guard's injury in the coming days, but Sow would be difficult to replace on a New England offensive line that has been working all summer to find the right combination with which to head into Week 1.
Aug 25, 2024
Leaves with ankle injury
Sow exited Sunday night's preseason game against the Commanders with an ankle injury and is questionable to return.
ANALYSIS
Sow has been running as New England's starting left guard all summer. For an offensive line that is trying to find the right combination up front, losing Sow to any sort of multi-week injury would be a big deal. A fourth-round pick in 2023, Sow started 13 games as a rookie.
Sep 29, 2023
Good to go Sunday
Sow (concussion) was removed from the Patriots' injury report ahead of Sunday's game against Dallas.
ANALYSIS
New England will be happy to have one of its top rotational offensive linemen back, as the 25-year-old seems to have recovered from the concussion that held him out the previous two weeks. Guard Cole Strange (knee) is listed as questionable this coming Sunday, and Sow could very well fill in if he's unable to suit up.
Sep 23, 2023
Out for Week 3
Sow (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Sow will miss his second game in a row after sustaining a concussion in Week 1 against the Eagles. His depth will be sorely missed with guards Cole Strange (knee) and Mike Onwnu (ankle) both listed as questionable for Sunday's bout.
Sep 17, 2023
Unavailable for Week 2
Sow (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 2 versus the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
Sow will miss Sunday's contest after suffering a concussion in Week 1 versus the Eagles. With both Cole Strange (leg) and Mike Onwenu (ankle) returning Sunday night, Sow would've likely been set to be a reserve option against Miami.

Depth for Pats' O-line
The Patriots selected Sow in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 117th overall.
ANALYSIS
Sow spent five seasons at Eastern Michigan and started 55 games during his collegiate career. He boasts good arm length -- measured at 33 and 5/8 inches -- which he pairs with above-average burst and agility. Sow may need additional time to develop due to his relative lack of pedigree, but he has the tools to contribute at guard for the Patriots.
