Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez provides encouraging update post-shoulder surgery

Christian Gonzalez appears to be progressing well following season-ending surgery on his torn labrum in October.

The Patriots cornerback shared a video from his trainer, Christian White, that shows him gliding around the field with ease. “We back. @christian.gonzalez3,” White wrote on Instagram.

Gonzalez added the video to his story and wrote: “It’s bout to get REAL. Yr2…”

The No. 17 overall pick in 2023 played in four games as a rookie, compiling 17 tackles, a sack, an interception, and three passes defended. Gonzalez had already emerged as one of the team’s better players before the setback.
