Patriots Release Thursday Injury Report For Week 8 Game

The New England Patriots hit the field on Thursday for the second practice. Some of their stars were missing, but it was good to see some of them return. The team is getting ready for the Week 8 contest, and we really hope that the Buffalo Bills are ready, too.

The Patriots released their injury report due to the Week 8 contest on Monday. Now we can discuss the level of participation, and here comes the best part. Tight end Rob Gronkowski came back on practice. He was limited participant because of the back injury that kept him out of the field last game.

Gronkowski did not play in the game with the Chicago Bears due to his back and ankle injury. Latest reports confirmed that Gronk has a “shot” to play in the primetime game against the Buffalo Bills.

The tight end played against the Bills in 13 different occasions, and totaled 66 catches for 1,027 yards and 12 touchdowns. Being a Buffalo player must be hard at the moment.
