The New England Patriots have now released their second injury report of Week 15 and their Thursday offering is identical to the one they released on Wednesday except for the addition of one player.
After failing to practice on Thursday due to an illness, Patriots cornernack Johnson Bademosi (illness) was added to the teams injury report. Also failing to practice on Thursday was defensive tackle Alan Branch (knee), who was injured during the Patriots Monday night game against the Miami Dolphins. With Branch now missing two practices in a row it’s looking like he might ultimately sit out the Sunday afternoon game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
