Tavai Expected Back for Patriots Training Camp

News summary

New England Patriots linebacker Jahlani Tavai suffered a calf injury during a recent OTA practice and is expected to be sidelined until training camp, missing mandatory minicamp but likely returning in late July. Initial fears of a long-term or season-ending injury have subsided, with reports indicating Tavai avoided a serious setback. Tavai, who led the team in tackles last season with either 109 or 115 (depending on sources), recently signed a multi-year contract extension and remains a key defensive player. His absence comes as the Patriots integrate new linebackers Robert Spillane, Jack Gibbens, and Christian Elliss, and adapt to a new defensive system. During Tavai's recovery, Spillane, Gibbens, and Elliss are expected to take on expanded roles in offseason programs. The team remains optimistic that Tavai will be ready for the start of training camp.
