The New England Patriots are getting healthier after a brutal Week 13. The team fought an illness that contributed to leaving 18 players on the final injury report last week. In Week 14, the list got shorter.
New England had two players who didn’t participate in Wednesday’s practice: defensive tackle Byron Cowart (head) and center Ted Karras (knee). Quarterback Tom Brady was listed on the injury report with toe and right elbow issues, but he was a full participant.
Six players were listed as limited. They are as follows…
LIMITED PARTICIPATION
LB Ja’Whaun Bentley, Knee
OT Marcus Cannon, Illness
S Patrick Chung, Heel
WR Julian Edelman, Shoulder
CB Jason McCourty, Groin
WR Mohamed Sanu, Ankle
Receiver Phillip Dorsett is no longer dealing with limitations from a concussion. However, Edelman and Sanu are still limited with their injuries. Sanu, in particular, seemed to take a decreased role on Sunday as he only got 19 snaps, surely a product of his ankle issue.
