But I just saw a 5-second video Reiss posted of Edelman cutting at practice. Cuts to his left pretty fluidly and accelerates to the end zone.

Cutting and accelerating? Good enough for me!
As long as he doesn't come back with bricks tied to his hands, ala LaFell, I think we're good to go.

There was some concern about Jules' ability to catch the ball after the TV cameras caught a shot of his messed up hand in a game earlier this season after he bobbled a ball into a pick 6. If there was an injury there, he's had a lot of time to let the hand heal, so I'm hoping his hands are even better than they were earlier!
Reiss also tweets a picture of Seabass seemingly jogging in sweats.

Giggity.

Am I alone in wondering what is up with LaAdrian Waddle? How is his left shoulder? Is the silence about him because he is still hurt, or because people have forgotten him entirely.
He's close to the 53rd man on the roster and could be inactive even if he's healthy.
My son is not the 53rd man on the roster so you can shove it up your....
Err...Sorry about that.
In all seriousness, I defer to expertise, but is a healthy Waddle not a better bet than a healthy Fleming for the 3rd tackle? When Cannon and Fleming are the other 2 options, is he really a healthy inactive (serious question, I lack the skills to say).

I was going to say: given that Waddle surprisingly replaced Vollmer in the Jets game (until he himself got hurt), a healthy Waddle may be the backup LT.
Yeah, I don't know who is 3rd vs. 4th on the OT depth chart between him and Fleming. It's not so clear to outsiders which is another reason people aren't talking about it much as the difference between the two back-ups is difficult to discern. But if Vollmer and Williams are healthy one of those guys will likely be inactive.

My sense from in-game management and the insight of the PFW guys is that Fleming is the last resort at tackle. My guess is he would clearly be the most likely inactive from the backup OT group.
I'm going to assume a personal day or some vet maintenance thing, and not completely freak out.
EDIT: Or is this the place where I can start a "Gronk punched Belichick and got sent home" rumor?

That seems rational.
I, on the other hand, just threw my chair through my office window.
Everyone knows that Pats tight ends don't get killed, they do the killing.
it must not be that serious otherwise I doubt he would have been at practice the past few days
Did you read the story? Police went to his home to "secure the residence." He may not have a serious medical problem, but police involvement (including the redacting of the record) is going to mean something at some point

Why would the police delete anything from dispatch records? That doesn't make any sense to me at all.
the pertinent part of the story
The dispatch report also shows that a Foxboro officer modified the dispatch record of the emergency call at 3:02 p.m. today – shortly after the Herald called O’Leary and received a copy of the dispatch call records.
O’Leary said medical information was deleted from the record.
“It’s protected information on a medical condition,” said O’Leary. “Officers get training in making sure it’s information that’s not to be disclosed. I trust my lieutenant to know the difference.”
For all we know it could be an asthma attack; but unless Jones or the team chooses to clear it up, it'll hang around a while

Unless it's mandated by federal law. He could have had an allergic reaction for all we know.
"Secure the residence" could be as simple as him running to the police station and leaving his door open to get there quickly.

I was mentioning this weirdness in the office and every response was some variation on "too much cocaine?" (I live in Oregon)
edit: like an allergic reaction... to cocaine! But really, does he live right by the police station? Why would he go there?

2 minutes away from the station.
And you don't "live" in Oregon ... you're just visiting for a long time
I'm stealing this. I hate saying I live in the Worcester area. I'm from the south shore dammit.
Isn't it normal to not disclose medical information? I think the weird part is he went to the police station. If he went to a hospital they wouldn't be announcing what was wrong with him. Obviously the police station was closer.
