Patriots Rumors: ‘Questionable’ Veterans To Play Vs. Chargers

The New England Patriots will have everyone at their disposal for their wild-card matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.

Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) and Harold Landry III (knee) are both expected to play despite being listed as questionable, according to ESPN’s Mike Reiss.

Boutte’s injury has bothered him throughout the season, causing him to miss the club’s victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10 before popping back up during practice on Wednesday. Landry’s injury has been nagging him throughout the year, but he didn’t miss time until the club forced him to rest during the final two regular season matchups against the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins.

It’s the playoffs, though, so both are ready to go contribute without limitations…

The Patriots did themselves the favor of bringing in reinforcements, however — defensive lineman Leonard Taylor III and wide receiver Jeremiah Webb were elevated from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday.

Thayer Munford Jr. is the only other player listed as questionable. TreVeyon Henderson, Jared Wilson, Garrett Bradbury, Morgan Moses and Vederian Lowe, all of whom missed practices this week, are not listed with game statuses and are expected to be available.
