Marte Mapu Injury: Questionable for AFCCG due to hip

Published on January 23, 2026

Mapu (hip) is questionable for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Broncos, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

This is a new injury for Mapu. Most of his opportunities this season have come on special teams, though he may rotate in for a few snaps on defense at linebacker if healthy. Mapu played one defensive snap in each of the Patriots' previous two playoff games.
