Patriots Practice Report: Jacob Hollister, LaAdrian Waddle Absent Ahead Of Jets Game
FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots held their final practice of the regular season Friday, taking the field for one last tune-up ahead of Sunday’s Week 17 matchup with the New York Jets at Gillette Stadium.
Tight end Jacob Hollister and offensive tackle LaAdrian Waddle were the only players not spotted at the session, which was held inside the recently renovated Empower Field House.
Hollister also missed Thursday’s practice with a hamstring injury, making it highly unlikely he will play against the Jets. The second-year pro has sat out seven of New England’s 15 games this season — six due to injury and one as a healthy scratch.
The reason for Waddle’s absence was unclear. The Patriots’ top backup for both tackle spots, Waddle has not appeared on the injury report and had not missed a practice since October.
