Patriots' Ja'Whaun Bentley: Eight stops in loss
Bentley recorded eight tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.

Patriots' Jahlani Tavai: Eight tackles in defeat
Tavai recorded eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.
Tavai was able to match his season-high eight takedowns in what was a defensive battle in Week 13. The linebacker has now compiled a career-high 72 tackles, including a sack, while forcing a fumble, intercepting a pass and deflecting four others through 12 contests in 2023.

Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Still dealing with injury
Boutte (shoulder) was a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Boutte was unable to practice last week and missed the team's loss to the Chargers on Sunday. Although the report is just an estimated level of participation, it's not a good start to the week for the LSU product and his chances of suiting up Thursday against the Steelers. He'll likely need to get on the field in some capacity Tuesday to have a chance to play.

Patriots' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Limited on Monday's estimate
Smith-Schuster (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Smith-Schuster played 59 offensive snaps in this past Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers but totaled just one catch for 11 yards on three targets. New England's banged up at wide receiver -- Demario Douglas (concussion) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) were listed as non-participants Monday, while DeVante Parker (knee) was limited -- but Smith-Schuster's problem this season has been a lack of production rather than a lack of playing time. Even if he suits up Thursday against the Steelers and the other receivers don't, Smith-Schuster's upside will be limited considering he has recorded 15 or more receiving yards in only one game since Week 3.

Patriots' DeVante Parker: Limited Monday with knee injury
Parker (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Parker led the Patriots in targets (nine) and receiving yards (64) in this past Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers, but he's nursing a knee injury in the aftermath of that strong performance. Fellow wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) was also listed as limited on Monday's estimate, while Demario Douglas (concussion) was a non-participant. With Douglas unlikely to suit up Thursday in Pittsburgh, Parker could remain the team's top wide receiver if he's able to shed this knee injury.

Patriots' Ezekiel Elliott: Limited on Monday's estimate
Elliott (thigh) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Elliott was nursing a thigh injury heading into this past Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers, but he played through it and handled a season-high 21 touches as Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) exited in the first half. Stevenson was listed as a non-participant Monday and is unlikely to play against the Steelers on Thursday, so if Elliott can avoid a setback with his thigh, he's likely to draw the start in a Patriots backfield that also includes Ty Montgomery and JaMycal Hasty.

Patriots' Demario Douglas: Yet to resume practicing
Douglas (concussion) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Douglas hasn't resumed practicing since entering the NFL's five-step concussion protocol after a 10-7 Week 12 loss to the Giants. With Thursday's game against the Steelers fast approaching, Douglas is running out of time to clear the protocol. DeVante Parker (knee), Tyquan Thornton and JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) led New England's receiving corps with Douglas sidelined in this past Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.

Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Listed as DNP on Monday's estimate
Stevenson (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.
The Patriots didn't hold a practice Monday, but Stevenson wouldn't have participated had the team held a session. Stevenson injured his right ankle in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers and is believed to be dealing with a sprain, so he doesn't seem likely to suit up Thursday against the Steelers. Ezekiel Elliott is expected to lead New England's backfield in Stevenson's absence, though the former was listed as limited on Monday's estimate due to a thigh injury. Ty Montgomery and JaMycal Hasty round out New England's depth chart at running back.

Patriots' Mac Jones: Backs up Zappe in Week 13
Jones was active but didn't see any snaps in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.
Heading into Week 13 action, Jones had started all 11 of the Patriots' games, but on Sunday it was Bailey Zappe who got the nod at QB. Given the results of the contest, it remains to be seen which signal-caller will handle the first snap Thursday night against the Steelers, but it would surprise us if coach Bill Belichick offered much clarity on the situation in the coming days.

Patriots' Mike Gesicki: Limited snaps Sunday
Gesicki logged seven of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Gesicki, who was out-snapped in the contest by fellow TEs Hunter Henry (47 snaps) and Pharaoh Brown (32 snaps), did not record a target Sunday. Following back-to-back zero-catch efforts, Gesicki is not a reliable fantasy lineup option as Thursday night's game against the Steelers approaches.

Patriots' Tyquan Thornton: Held without a catch Sunday
Thornton logged 51 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
While Thornton gained 39 yards on an end around, his lone target in the contest came on a deep pass from QB Bailey Zappe that slipped through the wideout's hands, per Mark Daniels of Masslive.com. The 2022 second-rounder saw added snaps Sunday with Demario Douglas (concussion) out, however regardless of whether Douglas is available Thursday night against the Steelers, Thornton remains off the fantasy radar given that he's been limited to a 5/34/0 receiving line in five games to date.

Patriots' JuJu Smith-Schuster: One catch Sunday
Smith-Schuster was on the field for 59 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Despite leading the Patriots' wide receivers in playing time Sunday, Smith-Schuster recorded just one catch for 11 yards on three targets in the contest. With the team's offense continuing to struggle, Smith-Schuster doesn't hold much fantasy lineup appeal ahead of Thursday night's game against the Steelers.

Patriots' Chad Ryland: No field-goal tries Sunday
Ryland didn't record any field-goal attempts in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.
Heading into Week 13 action, there had been some speculation that Ryland, who had missed 35-yard field-goal tries in consecutive games, could be potentially be replaced as the Patriots' kicker. Though Matthew Wright was added to the team's practice squad, Ryland maintained his role Sunday. Looking ahead to Thursday night's game against the Steelers, the 2023 fourth-rounder is off the fantasy radar considering the continuing struggles of New England's offense.
