Patriots | Martellus Bennett should play
New England Patriots TE Martellus Bennett (ankle, shoulder) is expected to play against the Miami Dolphins in Week 17 even though he is listed as questionable for the game.
Footballguys View: The Patriots haven’t locked up the no.1 seed in the AFC, so they’ll be playing hard against the Dolphins. Bennett has been hot and cold this year for fantasy owners. On the season, the Dolphins allow an average of 58.6 passing yards per game (13th) to tight ends. The last time Bennett played Miami (Week 2), he had five catches, 114 receiving yards and one touchdown.
Patriots | Tom Brady expected to play
New York Patriots QB Tom Brady (thigh) is expected to play against the Miami Dolphins in Week 17 even though he is listed as questionable for the game.
Footballguys View: Brady and the Patriots want to wrap up the no.1 seed in the AFC with a win. They’ll be going after the Dolphins on Sunday. Brady didn’t play against the Dolphins in Week 2 earlier this year as he was suspended. He should be able to have a strong day in Week 17.
