The New England Patriots released their injury report Friday afternoon, as the team prepares for Sunday's battle in Oakland. Tight-end Aaron Hernandez has been shutdown for week 4, a move that I am glad to see happen. After sitting out another game this week, hopefully Hernandez can contribute in week 5 against the Jets.
Also, Albert Haynesworth, who continues to nurse a back injury, and Patrick Chung, who had thumb surgery last week, are questionable for Sunday.
