LB Jeanty questionable with foot sprain

Coach Marvin Lewis rolled through the unofficial injury report at his early afternoon news conference today, listing starting outside linebacker Rashad Jeanty and questionable with a foot sprain. Jeanty was seen earlier in the locker room with a walking boot on his left foot.

Lewis said "a combination of players" would fill the strongside linebacker spot of Jeanty is limited or can't play, including Caleb Miller.

Listed as doubtful is rookie linebacker A.J. Nicholson (hamstring).

Questionable are wide receiver Antonio Chatman (groin) and Jeanty.

Probable, "the rest of the team," Lewis said. "Everybody's got aches and pains."

He did say that Chatman had a "good workout (Tuesday) and is chomping at the bit to get back."

Lewis also had nothing but praise for New England and coach Bill Belichick, calling Belichick someone from whom he has learned a lot. Lewis also said the Patriots are known for their excellent preparation from game to game and will require great focus to beat.

That said, the Patriots have gone a span of 52 consecutive games without losing two games in a row. They are coming off a 17-7 loss Sunday night to Denver. The last time New England lost two games in a row was Dec. 16 and 22, 2002, at Tennessee and at home to the Jets.
