New EnglandOn bench Sunday
Feingold (ankle) is on the bench for Sunday's encounter with Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Feingold has regained full fitness and is ready to play after four months on the sidelines. The right-back made consistent appearances at the beginning of the season, scoring one goal over nine games played (eight starts). He's now available as a potential substitute for Matt Polster before competing for a greater role.
Not listed on report
Feingold (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's match against Columbus.
Analysis: Feingold has been out for around four months now with ankle issues, but the fact that he's not listed on the injury report suggests the defender could be on the verge of returning to the side. Feingold has started in eight of his nine appearances this season, and when healthy, he should be a reliable, defensive-minded option on the right side of the Revs' backline.
Cleared from injury, building fitness
Feingold (ankle) is cleared of his injury but is now building fitness, according to manager Marko Mitrovic, per Caleb Pongratz of Spotrac. "Ilay is in a very good spot. Ilay is building his fitness, knowing that the last game he played was four months ago, and hopefully, in the next couple of weeks, he'll show good progress in his fitness and be more game-ready. He is cleared in regard to the injury. It's more about getting him ready now, not just to play, but to perform as well."
Analysis: Feingold has been out for around four months now with ankle issues, but is on the mend, as he has been cleared of the injury. However, he is not ready for time on the field after just being cleared, with the defender still building fitness. He could still take a few more matches to be ready, although a return in two to three weeks could be expected.
Underwent minor ankle surgery
Feingold (ankle) underwent minor ankle injury and is expected to miss another two to four weeks, reports Caleb Pongratz of Prost International.
Analysis: Feingold suffered a setback in his recovery after undergoing a minor ankle procedure, delaying his return to the pitch. He's expected to be out for roughly four weeks, but once healthy, he should provide a significant boost to the defense, having already tallied 24 clearances, 13 tackles, and a goal across nine appearances this season.
Listed as day-to-day
Feingold (lower body) is deemed day-to-day in recovery, according to manager Marko Mitrovic, per Caleb Pongratz of Spotrac. "He is still day-to-day. He had a small injury that affects him. He has progressed, but maybe not as fast as we thought he was going to, so, he is still day-by-day."
Analysis: Feingold is not suffering from a major injury and could be back very soon, as the defender is listed as day-to-day. With two matches this week, he could very well return in either. He is their starting right-back, so his return is a good addition back to the team.
Injury confirmed
Feingold is listed as questionable for Saturday's match against Philadelphia due to a lower-body injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.
Analysis: Feingold has carried this questionable tag from the last match without resolution, suggesting the lower-body issue hasn't fully cleared during the week. He's been a creative presence in New England's attack and a viable fantasy contributor when healthy and starting. However, if he is to miss out again, Will Sands should start at right-back again.
Off at halftime
Feingold had one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Inter Miami CF. He was subbed off due to injury in the 46th minute.
Analysis: Feingold did not return for the second half on Saturday due to an injury.He's managed to start the last eight matches in a row, scoring once while recording 23 clearances with 12 tackles. He will remain day to day for the clash with Charlotte on Saturday.
