Pats Pulpit Podcast Episode 111: The New England Patriots starters dominated the Philadelphia Eagles in the second week of the preseason with Tom Brady and the offense moving the ball at will (just like in the Super Bowl) and the defense generating incredible pressure and forcing turnovers (where was that in the Super Bowl?).A big question on the minds of Patriots fans is what the team will do at wide receiver now that Kenny Britt is no longer with the team. The Patriots have Julian Edelman (suspended 4 games Cheap Jonathan Jones Jersey , coming off serious ACL injury), Chris Hogan, Cordarrelle Patterson, Phillip Dorsett, and Eric Decker as the likely contributors, with Riley McCarron as a dark horse option. I wouldn’t be surprised if those were the players that New England took into the regular season......but we can dream about Dez Bryant, right? Or maybe Jeremy Maclin? SOMEONE?!Alec and Rich cover it all. This podcast is available in the iTunes store, Stitcher, TuneIn Cheap Devin McCourty Jersey , BluBrry, and via RSS Feed.

Today, the team held its first practice leading up to the upcoming Thursday nighter – and one big name was missing:Did not participateAfter leaving Sunday’s game due to a re-aggravated ankle injury, Rob Gronkowski was not present for today’s walkthrough. While his absence does not per se rule the NFL’s best tight end out for Thursday’s game yet, it is not the best sign when it comes to his availability in two days. The Patriots holding Gronkowski out against Indianapolis and giving him additional time to rest is therefore a realistic scenario from today’s point of view.Meanwhile, Eric Rowe is still hampered by the groin he injured during New England’s week two game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The team’s number two cornerback missed the last two contests because of the issue and it would not be a surprise to see him sit out this week’s game as well. The same could hold true for LaAdrian Waddle, the team’s third offensive tackle.Limited participationAdam Butler and Elandon Roberts both left Sunday’s game against the Dolphins due to injury Ryan Allen Jersey , so seeing them back on the field today is a good sign when it comes to their long-term availability. Like Geneo Grissom and Jacob Hollister, the two defenders are relative question marks heading into week five. Josh Gordon, Brandon King and Danny Shelton, on the other hand, should be expected to play on Thursday.Full participationOne player that was presumably participating fully during today’s practice but is not listed on the injury report is wide receiver Julian Edelman. The 32-year old returned from a four-game suspension yesterday but currently finds himself on a roster exempt list. Until he gets off the exemption and onto the Patriots’ active 53-man roster, the team does not need to list him on its practice report.
