It sounds like Danny Woodhead's injury situation is not as serious as initially believed.
Woodhead was knocked out of action on the first play of Sunday's win over the Houston Texans. He immediately retreated to the locker room and was later seen on the sidelines with his thumb wrapped.
Woodhead did not return to the field, but coach Bill Belichick said that he could have played if needed.
"Had we needed to use him, he would have been available to go back in there," Belichick said. "Now that we are into a new week, we will re-address the whole situation and try to get a good feel of what he would and wouldnt be available to do, and how functional he would be doing it."
