Patriots injury analysis: List keeps growing, but there are good news

The Patriots, after all, also sustained several injuries along the way. That said, most of them looked like they were comparatively minor issues and should not have a serious impact on the team moving forward.

FB Reggie Gilliam: The Patriots' fullback, who was nursing a knee injury heading into the game, left the sideline for the locker room in the late first quarter. He was later announced as questionable to return with an ankle issue, but did make his way back onto the field in the second period and straight away helped clear a path on a Rhamondre Stevenson touchdown run.

ED Dre'Mont Jones: Making his comeback after a one-week absence due to a shoulder injury, Jones was slow to get up after an incompletion just inside the first-half two-minute warning. However, he stayed in the game and showed no signs of limitation down the stretch.
