New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown is traveling with the team to Germany for Sunday's international game in Munich against the Detroit Lions, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.
Vrabel made it clear that some players will travel with the team and still not play in the game. So Brown being on the plane doesn't necessarily guarantee that he will suit up against the Lions. However, the fact that he is traveling gives him a legitimate chance to play in the game.
"Yeah, we'll see what he can do, and I would say most everybody, but a few guys are going to go to Germany, including him as the group that would go," Vrabel told media members on Wednesday.

Brown has missed the previous two games against the Miami Dolphins and Green Bay Packers due to a flare-up of a lingering knee injury.
The Patriots' offense needs all of the help it can get after last week's meltdown against the Packers. They turned the ball over four times and got blown out 45-27 in their own building. Granted, Brown has not made much of an impact in the three games he has appeared in with the team.
But there's hope that it's only a matter of time before things start to click like it did on the practice field during the summer at training camp.
