Practice peek: perfect attendance

The Patriots are holding their first on-field practice of the week, and made the late decision to move inside the Dana-Farber Fieldhouse.

There are no absences to report, and players are in shells and shorts or pants.

Eric Alexander, Wesley Britt and Matt Gutierrez are sporting black jerseys as practice players of the week.

Practice report

Hey all -

As previously posted, Eddie Jackson and Chad Jackson were on the field with their teammates for practice today, meaning the Patriots have opened the 21-day window for both.

Within the next three weeks, the two players can practice and the team must decide by the end whether to activate the players (and make a corresponding move) or place them on season-ending IR.

Also at practice, held in shorts and shells, Benjamin Watson, Sammy Morris, Mel Mitchell and Eric Alexander were missing, and tackle Wesley Britt made his return after a week tending to personal issues.

Marcellus Rivers, Pierre Woods and C.J. Jones were all in black jerseys for being named practice players of the week.

It is the second consecutive black jersey and third of the season for Jones, a practice squad receiver.

Mitchell, Britt out

Special teams ace Mel Mitchell (groin) and backup tackle Wesley Britt (personal) have both been downgraded to out for tomorrow's game.

Britt's status leaves New England thin at tackle; Matt Light is questionable for the game with the flu.

Friday injury/participation report

Hey all --

Well apparently the flu bug has hit the Patriots' locker room a bit early, as that is the reason given for Matt Light's absence from practice today. The left tackle is one of 10 players listed as questionable for Sunday's game.

Dallas cornerbacks Anthony Henry (ankle) and Courtney Brown (biceps) have both been declared out for the contest.

Here's the full injury list:

NEW ENGLAND
Questionable

CB Randall Gay - thigh
C Dan Koppen - ankle
T Matt Light - flu
RB Laurence Maroney - groin
S Mel Mitchell - groin
G Stephen Neal - shoulder
CB Asante Samuel - foot
WR Donte Stallworth - knee
LB Adalius Thomas - ankle
WR Kelley Washington - hamstring

Probable
QB Tom Brady - right shoulder
T Wesley Britt - team decision

Britt, Light and Mitchell did not practice; Gay, Koppen, Maroney, Neal, Samuel, Stallworth, Thomas and Washington had limited participation; and Brady had full participation.

DALLAS
Out

CB Courtney Brown - biceps
WR Terry Glenn - knee
CB Anthony Henry - ankle

Doubtful
FB Oliver Hoyte - neck

Questionable
S Keith Davis - shoulder

Probable
LB Kevin Burnett - thigh

Henry did not practice; Brown and Hoyte had limited participation, and Davis and Burnett had full participation.

Wednesday practice look

Hey all --

We're just in from practice, and there are two absences to report: special-teamer Mel Mitchell and guard Wesley Britt were not on the field today.

Britt, we've been led to believe, is tending to a personal matter.

But Dan Koppen and Laurence Maroney, the starters who missed Sunday's game, were on the field, and both were spotted in the locker room today, which is generally a good sign for the player.

The practice players of the week were practice-squadders Dan Connolly, an offensive lineman, and receiver C.J. Jones. It is Jones' second black jersey this year.

Game inactives - Maroney, Koppen out

Running back Laurence Maroney is once again listed as an inactive for today's game, the second game he's missed due to a groin injury.

Center Dan Koppen (ankle) is also out, meaning Russ Hochstein will likely serve as center.

Other inactives:

QB Matt Gutierrez - 3rd QB
S Rashad Baker
T Wesley Britt
DL Santonio Thomas
DL Kareem Brown
LB Chad Brown

By the way, we saw Marcellus Rivers in the media dining area with other inactive and practice-squad players, so it's a safe bet that he'll be re-signed this week.

Cleveland inactives:

QB Ken Dorsey - 3rd QB
P Dave Zastudil
DB Gary Baxter
RB Jerome Harrison
OL Isaac Sowells
OL Nat Dorsey
WR Travis Wilson
DL Ted Washington
