Here is yesterday’s Patriots practice report:
Aside from the McCourty injury, the Patriots are slowly getting healthier as the playoffs get closer and closer. Yes, losing D-Mac sucks, but he should be back for the playoffs, given that he will have about a month to recover from his high ankle sprain. Duron Harmon and Jordan Matthews will see their playing time spike over the next three weeks while McCourty rests up.
It is good news to see that Rob Gronkowski was a full participant, as that indicates he is nearing 100% as January approaches.
