Collins, Hightower Practice Again For Patriots On Thursday
BOSTON (CBS) -- Linebackers Jamie Collins and Dont'a Hightower were back on the practice field Thursday as the Patriots get ready for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Both were limited for the second day in a row, as Collins comes back from an illness that sidelined him for the last four games and Hightower recovers from a knee injury he suffered last Sunday in Denver.
Also limited for New England on Thursday were receiver Danny Amendola (knee), safety Patrick Chung (foot) and tight end Michael Williams.
Defensive lineman Dominique Easley (ankle), tight end Rob Gronkowski (knee), wide receiver Julian Edelman (foot) and corner Justin Coleman (hand) and were all missing from practice for the second straight day, making it unlikely they'll see the field come Sunday afternoon.
Tune in to Patriots-Eagles Sunday at 4:25pm on 98.5 The Sports Hub -- the flagship station of the New England Patriots. Pregame coverage begins at 1:30pm, with full reaction and analysis following the game. WBZ-TV kicks off their coverage at 11:30am with Patriots GameDay, and after the game switch over to myTV38 to see Bill Belichick and Tom Brady's postgame press conferences on Patriots 5th Quarter.
