The Patriots had a number of questionable players after the conclusion of Friday's practice.  Eight, to be exact. 

Fortunately for New England fans, many of those questions ended up with positive answers when the inactive list came out on Sunday morning. 

Of the eight players listed in Friday's report that ended up practicing in a limited fashion and receive the questionable game tag, six of them are active for Sunday's matchup at Miami.  LB Josh Uche and T Vederian Lowe are out, to go along with T Calvin Anderson, who was ruled out earlier in the week. 

The player that sticks out the most is WR Tyquan Thornton, who is a healthy scratch for New England.  The Patriots' second round pick in 2022 out of Baylor, Thornton has appeared in only two games this season, totaling just 2 catches for 8 yards. 

The Patriots and Dolphins kick off at 1:00 pm ET from Hard Rock Stadium.
