Randy Moss and Wes Welker have formed a potent 1-2 punch for the New England Patriots the past two seasons. But injuries to both could leave the Pats punch less Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons.
Welker and Moss were listed as questionable after they missed practice Friday.
Welker had limited participation in Thursday’s practice and was present for the start of practice Friday for stretching and kickoff return drills. He didn’t take part in team drills. Welker missed last Sunday’s 16-9 loss to the Jets with a right knee injury and is expected to be a game-time decision.
Welker had 12 catches for 93 yards in the season-opening win over the Buffalo Bills.
Moss also was present for the start of practice Friday, but didn’t participate in team drills due to a back injury. He was added to the Patriots’ injury report Friday.
I would play Wes Welker (if your from Boston it’s pronounced Welka) Cassell seems comfortable with him and most teams will be double teaming Randy Moss.
