FOXBORO — A day after missing just one player at practice, the Patriots fielded a complete roster Thursday.
Every player was present for the drills and stretching periods open to reporters. Linebacker Jahlani Tavai was absent for the start of Wednesday’s practice, when running back Rhamondre Stevenson and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte returned to action. Boutte was a full participant Wednesday after missing two games with a hamstring injury, while Stevenson was limited in his first action in three weeks due to a toe injury.
The Patriots appear to be in good health ahead of Sunday’s game at Cincinnati.
The Bengals have cast some mystery on their roster health heading into kickoff, with quarterback Joe Burrow practicing as a full participant Wednesday after missing two months with turf toe. It’s unclear if Burrow or Joe Flacco will start this weekend.
Both teams will release their next injury reports Thursday evening.
