2024 Fantasy Outlook
When healthy, Strange is penciled in as the Patriots' starting left guard. However, the 2022 first-rounder -- who started all 10 games that he played in last season -- is bouncing back from a torn patellar tendon in his left knee he sustained last December, an issue which could limit or sideline him early on in 2024.

Still not ready to practice
Coach Jerod Mayo said Wednesday that Strange (knee) won't be returning from injured reserve for Week 11, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Strange has sat out the entire season up to this point as he's recovered from a torn patella tendon he suffered near the end of last year, and there's still no concrete timetable for his return. With that said, there is still hope he'll be able to suit up at some point later in 2024.
