“Marshall [Newhouse] has done a good job at left tackle, and our offensive line has gotten a little bit of continuity there over the last few weeks. So, we’ll just see how it goes going forward, but we’re always excited and happy to have as many healthy players as we can out there on the field," said Patriots head coach Bill Belichick when asked about activating Wynn during his conference call on Monday.
Wynn returned to practice on October 30 after being placed on injured reserve with a foot injury following the Patriots week two win over the Dolphins.
Wynn will be eligible to play in Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Wynn With Patriots
The Patriots picked Wynn number 23 overall in the 2018 NFL Draft.
However, he has seen limited action due to injuries over his two seasons in the NFL.
In his rookie season, Wynn tore his Achilles in a preseason game and missed the remainder of the year.
This season, he started the Patriots first two games before suffering a foot injury that saw him sent to injured reserve.
According to Pro Football Focus, Wynn played 82 regular season snaps before going to IR.
He gave up one quarterback hit on 45 pass-blocking snaps.
Olszewski to IR
In a corresponding move, the Patriots have placed undrafted rookie receiver and punt returner Gunner Olszewski on injured reserve.
Olszewski has missed each of the previous two games due to ankle and hamstring injuries.
Olszewski to IR means that Mohamed Sanu will work as the primary punt returner, as he did against the Eagles.
