Injury Report

FOXBOROUGH -- Cornerback Alfonzo Dennard returned to practice Friday, one day after sitting out with a knee injury, and was listed by the Patriots as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans.

The Patriots ruled three players out: offensive lineman Marcus Cannon (ankle), receiver Aaron Dobson (foot), and tight end Michael Hoomanawanui (knee). None of those three participated in any practices this week.

In addition to Dennard, six other Patriots were listed as questionable, including safety Steve Gregory, who has missed the last two games with a broken thumb.

Dennard downgraded to out vs. Texans

http://www.boston.com/sports/football/p ... exans.html
Dennard underwent a knee procedure around the time of New England’s bye, and it was not expected that he would be in uniform against the Broncos a week ago. He was, though he was unable to finish the game.

The second-year player was limited in practice on Wednesday and Friday, but according to the Patriots he did not practice on Thursday.

Dennard joins WR Aaron Dobson (foot), RT Marcus Cannon (ankle) and TE Michael Hoomanawanui as players the team has already declared out for its matchup with the Texans.

I think it's obvious Ridley has a lot of talent but man you can't fumble like that. Probably going to be a lot of Bolden and Vereen because Blount fumbled too.

This is just proving a point to Ridley, hopefully this is what it takes. As for Blount I don't blame him as much because he got knocked out on his fumble...hard to hold on to a ball then.

A lot of good inactive for the Pats. Could be a tough game, despite the Texans record.

Field position is the big part of this game so far. Special teams.

Bad throw by Brady gives them good field position.

31-31 what a game.

Pats need to stop Tate.

Arrington needs to not stop playing when covering a man.

Game.

This team...lol. 100 percent change from the first half of the season. Now their offense is unstoppable and their defense sucks.

I do think the D will improve once Dennard comes back. Having to use Arrington on the outside at times is never a good thing.

One thing that concerns me is they're off to slow starts. After week 4 they averaged 9.75 points in the first half and that's even inflated because of the Steelers and Jets games.
