Patriots inactives: Will Campbell up, ex-defensive starter among inactives vs. Raiders

FOXBORO — Patriots left tackle Will Campbell, who was listed as questionable with an ankle injury, is active and set to make his NFL debut on Sunday.

Campbell suffered the injury Thursday in practice and was spotted Friday in the locker room with a wrap on his left ankle Friday in the locker room.

Here’s the full list of Patriots inactives:

QB Tommy DeVito (emergency third QB)

WR Efton Chism III

OL Caedan Wallace

OLB Anfernee Jennings

DT Eric Gregory

CB Christian Gonzalez

CB Charles Woods

Some notes:

Devito will still dress as the Patriots’ third quarterback. He can only enter Sunday’s game if both Drake Maye and Joshua Dobbs suffer injuries. As soon as Maye and Dobbs would be healthy enough to return, DeVito would need to leave the game.

Third-round pick Kyle Williams gets the nod over Chism as a fifth wide receiver behind Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte and Mack Hollins.

The Patriots will dress Campbell, LG Jared Wilson, C Garrett Bradbury, RG Mike Onwenu, RT Morgan Moses, OT Marcus Bryant, C/G Ben Brown and OT Vederian Lowe over Wallace.

Jennings, who’s started 37 games with the Patriots, was buried on the depth chart for most of the summer. The Patriots will have Harold Landry III, K’Lavon Chaisson, Keion White and Elijah Ponder at edge defender. Milton Williams can also slide over from defensive tackle.

The Patriots signed defensive tackle Cory Durden off of the practice squad and released Jeremiah Pharms Jr. on Saturday. Durden dresses over Gregory, who was claimed off waivers from the Bengals.

Gonzalez (hamstring) and Woods (groin) were both previously ruled out. The Patriots will dress Carlton Davis III, Alex Austin, Marcus Jones, DJ James and Corey Ballentine at cornerback.

Ballentine and linebacker Mark Robinson were elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. Both players will likely contribute on special teams. Ballentine has experience at gunner, where the Patriots have a void opposite Brenden Schooler.
