Patriots Inactives: Chung, Price Won't Play

Patriots DE/LB Jermaine Cunningham is returning to action for the Patriots after being a healthy scratch for two straight weeks.
Patriots DE/LB Jermaine Cunningham is returning to action for the Patriots after being a healthy scratch for two straight weeks.

Here are the Patriots inactives for their week ten game against the New York Jets:

Patrick Chung, S

Dane Fletcher, LB

Brandon Spikes, LB

Taylor Price, WR

Ryan Mallett, QB

Donald Thomas, OL

Shane Vereen, RB

The big names that will be missing tonight are Taylor Price and Patrick Chung - both were game time decisions.  The Patriots have been trying to work Price into the receiving game lately, but a hamstring injury sustained before last week's game against the Giants has been holding him back.

Patrick Chung hurt himself late in the game against the Giants Sunday, and was listed as questionable with a foot injury.  Chung tried to give it a go before tonight's game, but simply wasn't deemed healthy enough to play.  With Chung out, the Patriots will be relying on James Ihedigbo, Sergio Brown, and Ross Ventrone at safety. Gulp.

Jermaine Cunningham, Kevin Faulk, and Shaun Ellis - three players who missed last week either do to injury or being a healthy scratch in Cunningham's case, will all return to action.
