To put it bluntly, Trent Brown’s one season with the Las Vegas Raiders did not go well. He not only seemed to deteriorate as a player, but he also had a near-death experience that forced him to consider retirement due to the lengthy recuperation.
Brown informed reporters on November 16 that he “nearly died” due to a “IV incident.” Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic tweeted a piece of the tale.
Last year, Patriots offensive tackle Trent Brown claimed he was on the verge of dying when an IV malfunction led air to enter his system before the Raiders’ game against the Browns. He said that it took him almost eight months to feel normal again, and that he pondered retirement.

To make things worse, according to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport, Brown’s IV issue occurred just after he had recovered from COVID-19.

Trent Brown’s health is currently unknown.
Brown’s season in 2021 got off to a shaky start. In the Patriots’ Week 1 defeat to the Miami Dolphins, he hurt his calf. Brown didn’t play again until Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns.
Brown was injured in the first half versus Cleveland, but it didn’t keep him off the field the whole game. He rejoined the Patriots offensive line, where he helped anchor a group that comprised Isaiah Wynn, David Andres, Ted Karras, and Shaq Mason, who were all on the mend.
It looks like he will be ready to play when the Patriots travel to Atlanta to face the Falcons on Thursday Night Football.
Can the Patriots maintain their winning streak against the Atlanta Falcons?
The Tennessee Titans are the only club in the NFL with a longer winning streak than the Patriots’ current four-game run. The Patriots will try to extend their winning run to five games against a Falcons squad that was recently thrashed 43-3 by the Dallas Cowboys.
On the one hand, it’s easy to see a club like the Patriots, who have been in such good form, coming in and adding to the Falcons’ agony. That is possible, but we must also expect to see a desperate bunch of professionals looking to rebound against a suddenly strong Patriots club.
It’s still the NFL, and every club poses a threat. On such a short week, Bill Belichick’s main task is to make sure his squad is prepared to play. Given the fact that it is against a new opponent on a short week, this might be a possible trap game for the Patriots.
Because of the circumstances, this might be one of the Patriots’ most difficult victories of the season. Brown and the rest of the offensive line will be crucial in setting the tone for the offense and relieving pressure on the defense.
