The team just released their inactive list, and some interesting names are not on it. Left tackle Matt Light is playing, so is running back Sammy Morris, and so is defensive end Jarvis Green. All had been nursing injuries. Interestingly, tackle Sebastian Vollmer (head) is out, so is linebacker [...] Mon, 30 Nov 2009 19:37:16 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_release_inactives_Matt_Light_Sammy_Morris_are_in_Junior_Seau_Sebastian_Vollmer_out/1657358 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_release_inactives_Matt_Light_Sammy_Morris_are_in_Junior_Seau_Sebastian_Vollmer_out/1657358 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_release_inactives_Matt_Light_Sammy_Morris_are_in_Junior_Seau_Sebastian_Vollmer_out/1657358 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/c/c/cc6c618e65a7af24a20fa8db27ea3d1599380ac3/small/GettyImage.ashx_url_http_3a_2f_2fcache.gettyimages.com_2fxc_2f75432645.jpg_3fv_3d1_26c_3dEWSAsset_26k_3d2_26d_3d17A4AD9FDB9CF19363B56E6106AAF1021C0709CC6EDB2108.jpg Welcome in to today's second round of questions and answers with a blogger representing the opposing team.

Patriots Daily is a very classy, very respectable football blog, especially considering it's not part of the SB Nation family. I highly recommend a look.

I know, I know, they were all game-time decisions. But all spoke to the media, which is usually a sign that they’ll play.
