Both the New England Patriots and Las Vegas Raiders will be without a few key players in Sunday afternoon's Week 3 game at Gillette Stadium.
The Patriots on Friday ruled out starting center David Andrews (hand), running back James White (not injury related) and rookie linebacker Josh Uche (foot).
The loss of Andrews is a big one given his importance on the offensive line. He reportedly had surgery on his right hand this week, and that's the hand he uses to snap the ball to quarterback Cam Newton.
