Brady isn’t at full strength.
The Patriots quarterback is currently dealing with a calf injury and was limited in the team’s practice on Wednesday. It’s unknown if Brady suffered the injury in Miami, but he never came out of the Patriots’ 43-0 win over the Dolphins.
It wasn’t even known Brady had an injury until the Patriots released their first injury report on Wednesday evening. The NFL Network reported that the injury was “minor.”
In their first practice of the week, the Patriots were without players on both sides of the ball, as fullback James Develin and outside linebacker Shilique Calhoun were absent. In Miami on Sunday, Develin left the field because of what appeared to be an upper-body injury, but he returned and finished the game. He played 27 offensive snaps.
Along with Brady, Marcus Cannon (shoulder), Matt LaCosse (ankle) and Caleb Benenoch (calf) were also limited. Brandon Bolden (hamstring) was listed as a full participant.
Jets — LB C.J. Mosley (groin), WR Demaryius Thomas (hamstring), DL Quinnen Williams (ankle), LB Jordan Jenkins (calf),WR Josh Bellamy (shoulder) and RB Trenton Cannon (ankle) all sat out practice. … LT Kelvin Beachum (ankle), NT Steve McLendon (hip), S Rontez Miles (hip) and RG Brian Winters (shoulder) were all limited.
