SIGN UP HERE It's the first time Newton and Gilmore have practiced with the team after testing positive for COVID-19. Newton tested positive on Oct. 2 and missed the Patriots' Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Gilmore tested positive last week. Murray was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last week.
Newton was officially activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Gilmore's and Murray's participation at practice Thursday signifies they have been activated as well.
The Patriots have not played a game since Week 4. They were scheduled to play the Broncos in Week 5, but the game was rescheduled twice due to COVID-19. The game is currently set for 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
