Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones (hip) remains the lone player to not participate in practice. But the Patriots did release some good news for them on the health front. Starting left guard Dan Connolly and Bryan Stork were no longer listed on the injury report with concussions. Also, linebacker Jamie Collins (thigh), safety Devin McCourty (rib) and running back Shane Vereen (illness) were removed from the injury report.

Rookie defensive lineman Dominique Easley, who saw an increased role in place of Jones in Sunday’s win over the Bears, is still limited with a knee injury.

The other limited participants at Wednesday’s practice were core special-teamers Matthew Slater(shoulder) and Nate Ebner (finger), and rookie offensive lineman Cameron Fleming (finger).

Quarterback Tom Brady (ankle), cornerback Brandon Browner (ankle) and linebacker Dont'a Hightower (knee) were also listed on the injury report, but were full participants in practice.​
