Patriots vs. Texans inactives: Khyiris Tonga returns for divisional gameInjury updates and more for the Patriots divisional playoff game on Sunday.
Patriots EDGE Harold Landry (knee) is questionable for New England's Divisional Round game against the Texans.He didn't practice today. Landry played 26 snaps against the Chargers last week and would figure to be part of a rotation at EDGE if he were able to go -- the Pats have managed him through practices so we're not surprised to see him on the injury report, but a DNP on Friday is different than the norm for him. Backup RB Terrell Jennings (concussion) is questionable after two full practices on Thursday and Friday and could come off injured reserve tomorrow. Khyiris Tonga (foot) is not on the injury report at all after two full sessions. His return is great news for the New England run defense.
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) is active for the Wild Card Round against the Chargers.As is EDGE Harold Landry (knee). With Mack Hollins out at least several more weeks with an abdominal injury, Boutte enters the postseason as the Pats' primary deep threat. It's been a profitable role this season, and is perhaps one worth betting on in playoff DFS. That being said, you might not want to do vs. the Chargers' elite pass defense. Inactive for the Patriots are WR Jeremiah Webb, EDGE Bradyn Swinson, OT Marcus Bryant, OG Caedan Wallace, TE C.J. Dippre, QB Tommy DeVito and DT Khyiris Tonga.
