Phillip Dorsett returns to Patriots practice in Week 12

A good sign for the WRs.

New England Patriots receivers Mohamed Sanu and Phillip Dorsett were present for the media portion of practice on Thursday during Week 12 ahead of the team’s game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday at Gillette Stadium. Dorsett (concussion) was a limited participant while Sanu (ankle) didn’t participate, the team announced Thursday.

Sanu and Dorsett missed practice on Wednesday. While Sanu might miss a few weeks, according to NBC Sports Boston, there’s some optimism that Dorsett could return for Week 12, according to The Athletic. Sanu and Dorsett are behind just Julian Edelman on the depth chart. Their absences on Sunday would be significant, and would thrust rookie receivers N’Keal Harry and Jakobi Meyers into significantly increased roles.
