Per various Pats beat writer's tweets:

- S Patrick Chung was at Tuesday's practice after not making the trip to Denver.

- DE Eric Moore and OT Sebastian Vollmer were the only players not seen at Tuesday's practice.


Today was a walkthrough in shells in the practice bubble.

Good step for Chung. They don't mention Spikes so I'm hoping he is back as well. Both would be a big boost to the D. Beginning to expect Vollmer not to return as he has been battling back problems all year (after missing a season in college). Moore is curious as he was active at the end of the Denver game and is one of the more athletic DLs on the roster.

I Tweeted Spikes and told him to get his butt back in there and play hard. I expect him to perform well the rest of this season.

Good! That always works!

Would like to see Chung and Spikes get some reps in the Bills game, we need them for the playoffs. Guessing we won't see Vollmer this year.

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."

If he gets significant playing time Saturday and does well, I want FULL CREDIT from YOU.

Moore wasn't present due to being released.

His contract was made of glass.

Wednesday update via Jeff Howe:

Aaron Hernandez, BenJarvus Green-Ellis Absent From Practice - New England Patriots - NESN.com

The Patriots were surprisingly missing two of their offensive starters Wednesday at practice, as tight end Aaron Hernandez and running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis did not participate.

Hernandez (knee) and Green-Ellis (toe) had been hampered earlier in the season, but it's unclear if either injury caused them to miss Wednesday's session, which was held in sweats and shells inside the Dana-Farber Field House.

Safety Patrick Chung (foot) was present for the second day in a row, and it was the first time he participated in a non-walkthrough since Dec. 9.

Tackle Sebastian Vollmer (foot, back), who was spotted with crutches and a walking boot Tuesday, missed another practice. He hasn't been present since Nov. 25.

Hernandez declined media interviews during Tuesday's locker-room access, which may have been the first indication that he was dinged up. Since the Patriots had a walkthrough Tuesday, it seems most likely that he suffered an injury during the best statistical performance of his career Sunday.
