After beginning work on the Denver Broncos without four members of the active roster, the New England Patriots returned to the practice fields without six.
Running back Rhamondre Stevenson, tight end Hunter Henry, offensive tackle Conor McDermott and safety Jabrill Peppers remained non-participants on Thursday. Outside linebacker Anfernee Jennings and core special-teamer Cody joined them.
Both additions, combining for 537 snaps on defense and 236 snaps in the kicking game this season, were sidelined due to illnesses.
Here’s the second injury report heading into Sunday’s 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff at Empower Field.
