The Patriots will not have one of their key receivers for at least the next four weeks.
New England announced on Monday that Romeo Doubs has been placed on injured reserve.
Doubs suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's win over the Jets.
In his first season with the Patriots, Doubs currently leads the Patriots with 261 receiving yards and is tied for the team lead with three receiving touchdowns.
The team did get A.J. Brown back at receiver on Sunday. He finished with three catches for 27 yards on 10 targets.
As a corresponding move, the Patriots have signed defensive back Elliott Davison to the team’s 53-man roster from its practice squad.
Additionally, New England announced the team has signed receiver Ryan Miller, offensive lineman Jacob Rizy, and guard Andrew Rupcich to its practice squad. The Patriots have released cornerback D'Shawn Jamison from the practice squad.
