The New England Patriots have announced that defensive backs Steve Gregory and Alfonzo Dennard are out of their clash with the Carolina Panthers.
Gregory sustained a broken thumb in his side's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers and has failed to practise in the two weeks since.
Meanwhile, Dennard has been limited with a knee injury this week and missed his team's training session on Saturday and as a result has been ruled out of the game on Monday against the Panthers along with Gregory.
The Patriots are 7-2 going into week 11.
