For a second straight day, the New England Patriots’ had a long list of limited participants on the practice field. However, there’s hope that many of those players will be ready to play on Sunday.
Perhaps the most noteworthy names on Thursday’s list are offensive lineman Riley Reiff and special teamer Cody Davis. Reiff has been on injured reserve dealing with a knee injury, while Davis has been working his way back from the physically unable to perform list with a knee injury as well.
Both are eligible to return this week if ready. There are at least five Patriots players that could potentially return this week.
J.C. Jackson was on the practice field for the first time, catching up with owner Robert Kraft. Given the long list of injuries, particularly at the cornerback position, Jackson will be expected to step in and contribute right away for the team.
