The Patriots had some extra time to take a break before gearing up to play Miami this Sunday, and it was needed.
The New England Patriots are still a banged up football team, and that was quite evident in their final injury report before Sunday's Week 15 game versus the rival Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium.
Fourteen players for the Patriots were listed on Friday's injury report as questionable, including starting running back Damien Harris. The University of Alabama product is battling an ankle issue.

Jackson's seven interceptions are the second-most in the NFL behind Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard's nine.
The Dolphins have nine players listed as questionable, including former Patriots linebackers Elandon Roberts (chest) and Kyle Van Noy (hip).
The Patriots have won just two of their last seven games in Miami.
