Matthew Slater Is Lone Player Missing From Patriots Practice As Marquice Cole Returns

FOXBORO, Mass. — The Patriots may not be at full health, but based on attendance at practice, they’re getting there.

Matthew Slater was the lone player missing from Thursday’s practice session. Slater is dealing with a wrist injury. The team was in shorts and shells.

Marquice Cole was back at practice. He had missed Wednesday’s session due to a personal matter.

Danny Amendola and Rob Gronkowski were on the field. It was tough to gauge their health, as the portion of practice open to the media concluded after stretching.
