Moss, Kyle Brady added to Patriots injury report
Here's the latest breakdown. Note the league has changed the categories on the report to reflect participation in the previous week's practice sessions. Randy Moss and Kyle Brady have been added to the "limited participation in practice" category (they were not on Wednesday's report), as has Tom Brady, who yesterday had been listed on the injury report under "full participation in practice."
Limited Participation in Practice
-Rashad Baker, hand
-Kyle Brady, team decision
-Tom Brady, right shoulder
-Randy Moss, team decision

Perfect attendance again
We're just off the practice field, and for the second straight day, every eligible player was on the field, which clearly bodes well for the season opener.
The players are in shells and shorts today.

Thursday wrap
Hey all --
The Patriots announced their captains for the coming season today, and there are some familiar names and some new names on the list.
Special teams ace Larry Izzo will serve as captain for the seventh consecutive season -- every year he has been with New England. Tom Brady and Tedy Bruschi have been voted as captain for the sixth straight year, and Mike Vrabel will serve for the third straight year.
There are three players serving for the first time: Ty Warren, Kevin Faulk and Junior Seau.
Last night, Warren said it was an honor to be chosen by his teammates; Faulk, who theoretically is taking Troy Brown's spot (Brown is on the PUP for at least the first six weeks of the season), didn't think about the idea that he was supplanting Brown.
"I hadn't thought about it like that; I have so much respect for Troy. When I was a rookie, he was the guy I looked up to, just trying to emulate him," Faulk said.
Seau, who was a captain for more than a decade with San Diego, said in the New England locker room, being captain is not about politics or resume -- it's about respect.
