The Patriots running back is on injured reserve and his 21 day practice window will soon close. The Patriots have three weeks to put him on the active roster, or he will be lost for the season. It is possible that he's placed on the active roster this week, but expect him to be worked back into the playbook slowly given the quad muscle injury and chance of re-aggravation. The Patriots have classically taken a platoon approach to their backfield, and the emergence of Damien Harris along with the presence of James White and Rex Burkhead means they won't be forced to lean heavily on Michel as he works his way back.
