Patriots Practice Report: New England’s Perfect Attendance Streak Ends

FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots’ two-day streak of perfect practice attendance ended Friday.

Running back Brandon Bolden, who suffered a knee injury in Week 4 and hasn’t played since, was absent from the final practice session of the week before the Patriots travel to Pittsburgh to face the Steelers in Week 7.

The Patriots will release their final practice participation and injury report of the week around 4 p.m. They also will declare any players who didn’t travel to Pittsburgh out on Saturday night.

The Patriots practiced in shells and shorts Friday.

Guard Tre’ Jackson, who is on the physically unable to perform list, was present for practice but didn’t participate. He warmed up with his teammates and then departed to a separate field once drills began, so his clock to be activated has not yet begun.
