Patriots' Cole Strange rehabbing from torn patellar tendon

Patriots' offensive lineman Cole Strange is rehabbing a torn patellar tendon in his left knee, a previously undisclosed injury from December. Head coach Jerod Mayo is optimistic about Strange's progress but acknowledges a lengthy recovery ahead. With doubts for Week One, Mayo, who suffered a similar injury in 2014, empathizes with Strange. The 2022 first-round pick started 10 games last season before the injury.
