Malcolm Mitchell misses Patriots' practice on Tuesday

New England Patriots wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell (knee) missed practice on Tuesday.

What It Means:

After appearing to re-aggravate his knee injury in the Patriots' second preseason game on Saturday, Mitchell was nowhere to be seen during Tuesday's practice. The second-year wideout caught 2-of-3 targets for 13 yards in the loss to the Houston Texans.

Mitchell is projected to take a lesser role in 2017, racking up 29.5 catches, 392.4 yards, and 2.5 touchdowns as a second-string wideout in New England.
