Before Jones left Sunday's game with an ankle injury, Cunningham was getting most of his PT at DT in the defense's rush package... and doing a solid job, especially at drawing holding penalties from outmaneuvered guards.

I didn't notice during the game who filled that role with Cunningham forced by Jones' injury into full-time DE duty. Anybody with Game Rewind want to take a look (or PM their Game Rewind password so I can take a look) and see what the Pats were doing, personnel-wise, in rush package situations?
 
Trevor Scott had quite a few snaps (32), and I believe he was playing DE when Cunningham moved inside.
 
Trevor Scott played LE, Cunningham DT and Ninkovich RE on Sunday after Jones went out.

Bequette and Francis both played inside during training camp and preseason so I'd expect to see one of them get snaps as well on Thursday if Jones is out..
