New England Patriots left guard Cole Strange is set to be active in his first game of the season against the Buffalo Bills. The 2022 first-round draft pick hasn’t played since suffering his season-ending knee injury last year. He has started in every game since coming to New England.

Offensive lineman Cole Strange is active for Sunday's game against the Bills, and will suit up for the Patriots for the first time in over a year.

Strange, 26, started the year on the physically unable to perform list after tearing his patellar tendon last December. The injury kept him sidelined for more than a year. Obviously, questions still remain about Strange.
