Julian Edelman (concussion, thigh) did not travel with the Patriots today and will not play tomorrow vs. the Jets, according to two sources.

Good opportunity for Amendola to earn his salary.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

As I stated in another tread. The Squirrel was uncharacteristically absent from social media this last week - no typical GRIND posts of the day - leading one to conclude that something was not all GO in Edelperson land.

It's better to be safe than sorry...he's take a lot of hits this season...

 

[Mack Herron]

Good opportunity for Amendola to earn his salary.

I agree (at least to earn part of his salary). Ditto for Wright, who has gone incognito of late. If they plan to feature the pass, I wonder if they add a receiver (Boyce?).

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Besides Amendoler, just throw to Tyms or Wright, both better options than Boyce who can't crack the 53 never mind the 46.
Remember, there is only ONE football.

I'd rather give Tyms the starting opportunity to see what he could do with the snaps. We know what Amendola does with 50+ snaps (nothing).

Get your rest, Edel-bruh.

They have a full roster, currently. They also have been carrying 6 receivers.. Look for Amendola and Tyms to see more time.

As for Wright, he's gone "igcognito" because the gameplan hasn't called for enough passes to him.

Rest that melon, JE. You might want to go to Brady's neuro people and start working that brain, too.

 

[supafly]

Let's hope that we can see a CIN upset at home vs. DEN on Monday.

If he misses (or is rested) next week as well, it will be a full month between games, assuming that we get one of the top 2 seeds and first-round bye. That would be a nice luxury to have in order to see some of these nagging types of injuries (Arrington, Connelly) rest up and heal properly.

 

[meatface]

I hope he can recover from his brain trauma in time for the playoffs

 

[ctpatsfan77]

I love me some Minitron, but the last thing I want to see is another concussion for him (especially since one concussion makes you prone to getting another).

Heck, if it were up to me, a player who had a concussion would be required to sit out the next game (to balance things out, the team affected would get a roster exemption).

 

[mayoclinic]

Good. We need Edelman healthy for the playoffs, not concussed for the Jets.

Maybe this will give Brady a chance to get Wright and Amendola more involved, which could be a good thing down the road.

Sucks

Anything that forces him out of his comfort zone a bit is good. Use the whole pig.. right?

Catch 10 passes against the Bills?

 

[Gronkowski123]

bad news.
we have the worst wr core in the league. amendola, tyms, and lafell. tommy deserves a raise for this ****. we'll be pass heavy tomorrow since it's hard to run against the jets front.
maybe a lot of two TE sets!! or, just target gronk 20 times!!

maybe josh will find a way to field tyms/slater. #goroutes

 

[luuked]

Arrington out as well according to Reiss

 

[RIpats88]

Time for amendola to show hes the same guy who caught 10passes against buffalo last year
