The Patriots took on the Bills on Monday night in an AFC East matchup, with the Patriots looking to keep up the offensive pace they've set over the last few games.
After last week's close game against the Bears, the Patriots were without another large part of their running game as Sony Michel sat out with a knee injury.

He's expected to be kept off the field for several series — about a quarter — as they continue to work with & manage him. It'll be regular playing time after that.
After the discipline is done, Rapoport said Gordon is expected to be back to getting his normal reps for the rest of the game.
