FOXBORO -- Aaron Hernandez and Logan Mankins were back at practice Friday.
Just three players were missing from the end-week session, held inside the Dana Farber Fieldhouse: Safety Steve Gregory (hip), running back Brandon Bolden (knee), and linebacker Tracy White (foot).
Nine Patriots ended up limited Thursday, so the full extent of participation won't be known until Friday's participation report is released. Expectations may be high, considering a quote from Vince Wilfork yesterday.
"It's a division game for a lead in the division, so there's a lot riding on this game for both sides. So if you're healthy enough to play, you have to expect everyone."
