NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS NEWS

Rhamondre Stevenson - Still not practicing Stevenson (ankle) wasn't on the field at the start of Friday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Stevenson also didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday and his continued absence Friday suggests that the running back is trending toward being ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Broncos. If Stevenson remains sidelined this weekend, Ezekiel Elliott would once again lead New England's backfield in Week 16.

JuJu Smith-Schuster - Reps capped again Thursday Smith-Schuster (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Smith-Schuster has been a limited participant in both of the Patriots' first two Week 16 practices, and he may need to upgrade to full activity Friday to guarantee his availability for Sunday's game in Denver. The wideout was listed as a limited participant on all three of New England's practice reports last week before he was made inactive ahead of the Patriots' 27-17 loss to the Chiefs.

Rhamondre Stevenson - Still not practicing Stevenson (ankle) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Stevenson didn't practice Wednesday, so his continued absence Thursday sets the stage for what, if any, work the running back does during Friday's session to loom large in terms of his chances of suiting up Sunday night against the Broncos. If Stevenson -- who last saw action in Week 13 -- remains sidelined this weekend, Ezekiel Elliott would be in line to continue to lead the Patriots' backfield in Week 16.
