A high ankle sprain has landed a key player on injured reserve. The injury to A.J. Brown is expected to keep him out of action for at least four weeks, and possibly longer. This means he will miss several upcoming games, including those against the Steelers.

The absence of Brown will likely be felt, and other players will need to step up to fill the gap. Seven Patriots are identified as needing to take on more responsibility in Brown's absence.

Further details about the injury and its impact on the team are available from the source, which provides more information on the situation and what it means for the Patriots.
