Patriots Injury Report

Courtesy of ESPNBoston.com
Out
RB Fred Taylor (ankle)

Questionable
OT Nick Kaczur (ankle)
LB Jerod Mayo (knee)
S James Sanders (shoulder)
DB Shawn Springs (knee)
WR Wes Welker (knee)
DT Vince Wilfork (ankle)

Probable
QB Tom Brady (right shoulder)
LB Adalius Thomas (not injury related)

Good to see Thomas' absence isn't injury related. Sanders hurt his shoulder last week, but returned to the game. Welker, Wilfork, and Kaczur were all questionable last week and played.

Fred Taylor
has not been put on season-ending injured reserve. They can afford to carry him on the 53-man because Green-Ellis hasn't been active on game days, the two are essentially flipping spots. If more injuries strike the Pats may be compelled to end Taylor's season.

In Broncos injury news, RB Correll Buckhalter will not play. He is their leading rusher and is averaging 7.2 yards/attempt. S Brian Dawkins is questionable.
