FOXBORO, Mass. — While Devin McCourty's injury situation seems like a thing of the past, the Patriots will have some others to monitor in the coming days.

Here's the Monday health checkup.

Linebacker Gary Guyton couldn’t finish the game due to an unspecified injury, but NESN.com has been told it's nothing major.

Right guard Dan Connolly suffered a head injury (speculation: probably a concussion) in the second quarter and he didn’t play in the second half, although he stood on the sidelines for a little while in a winter jacket and no jersey. His return to the game was originally listed as questionable. Connolly was replaced by Ryan Wendell.

Defensive lineman Brandon Deaderick suffered a shoulder injury in the first quarter, but he returned in the second half. His return was originally listed as questionable.

Defensive lineman Myron Pryor did not play for the sixth consecutive game due to a back injury. He did not practice last week, and there is no clear timetable for his return.

Defensive lineman Ron Brace missed his second game of the season after suffering a concussion last week in Chicago. Brace did not practice all week, and there is no timetable for his return.
