Pregame notes

A few pre-game notes:

  • RB Laurence Maroney has taken the field to loosen up. The running game, with Maroney, figures to be a top priority tonight.

  • QB Tom Brady, who was excused from Wednesday's practice, is expected to be in attendance tonight. Brady will not be holding a post-game press conference.

  • TE David Thomas, who is on the physically unable to perform list after breaking his foot in the offseason program, is on the field going through sprints and being watched by trainer Jim Whalen. This is an encouraging sign for Thomas, who was last seen wearing a protective boot.
