You knew this from our friend Twitter. The extreme temperature was likely to help the team prepare for Miami’s warm climate. Missing for the sauna session were running back Fred Taylor and special teamer Bret Lockett. Remember, Taylor showed [...] Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:28:39 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_work_out_in_steamy_practice_bubble_in_prep_for_Miami/1674449 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_work_out_in_steamy_practice_bubble_in_prep_for_Miami/1674449 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_work_out_in_steamy_practice_bubble_in_prep_for_Miami/1674449 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/9/9/99d0b2ef6c11240844a6e1caf0b767a10afb17fe/small/GettyImage.ashx_url_http_3a_2f_2fcache.gettyimages.com_2fxc_2f392518.jpg_3fv_3d1_26c_3dEWSAsset_26k_3d2_26d_3d17A4AD9FDB9CF193FAC41A6BBF9596D501AA5636639238AC.jpg For the second time in two weeks, Patriots running back Fred Taylor made a cameo in the locker room. The veteran, who has been out since early October, didn’t stop when some dude asked him questions. But hey, he’s still hanging around (as Karen Guregian told me), not limping, looking like normal. It’s a far cry [...] Thu, 03 Dec 2009 12:23:40 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Fred_Taylor_says_8230_well_nothing_But_he_was_here_again/1673975 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Fred_Taylor_says_8230_well_nothing_But_he_was_here_again/1673975 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Fred_Taylor_says_8230_well_nothing_But_he_was_here_again/1673975 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/2/6/260b386ac14529e8ee00f9d3d64514046e39aba3/small/Atlanta_Falcons_v_0641.jpg Running back Fred Taylor walked through the Patriots locker room for about 10 seconds, ambling from the weight room to the trainer's room. He declined to speak to a reporter when approached. Like last week, Taylor had no noticeable limp,...

The session was held at Dana Farber Fieldhouse.

Like what we got in Indianapolis. Anyway, given the Patriots’ lengthy injury report, some inactives were expected… in addition to Fred Taylor being out, that is. There were, as you know, a whopping 17 [...] Sun, 29 Nov 2009 19:36:31 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Having_landed_in_New_Orleans_who_did_the_Patriots_rule_8220out_8221_for_the_Saints_game/1651279 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Having_landed_in_New_Orleans_who_did_the_Patriots_rule_8220out_8221_for_the_Saints_game/1651279 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Having_landed_in_New_Orleans_who_did_the_Patriots_rule_8220out_8221_for_the_Saints_game/1651279 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/5/0/5025804cdd9f5c9e3e922460f8bcfca43abe21d1/small/GettyImage.ashx_url_http_3a_2f_2fcache.gettyimages.com_2fxc_2f2822929.jpg_3fv_3d1_26c_3dEWSAsset_26k_3d2_26d_3d17A4AD9FDB9CF1930CAC8EAFC893BBEB49DEC5D34EC89407.jpg If there’s one thing we know about the Patriots heading into the Saints game Monday night, it’s that there are a lot of question marks. As in, 17 of them. That’s how many players were limited or held out of practice today. That’s not counting running back Fred Taylor, who has been declared out because [...] Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:55:28 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_rule_RB_Fred_Taylor_out_8230_17_questionable_for_Saints_game/1645477 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_rule_RB_Fred_Taylor_out_8230_17_questionable_for_Saints_game/1645477 http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/article_external/Patriots_rule_RB_Fred_Taylor_out_8230_17_questionable_for_Saints_game/1645477 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/9/2/92f647fc47e3fa81b072c3fad2b15c3401a4e69c/small/Fred_TaylorJames_Folston_8573.jpg FOXBOROUGH -- The Patriots released their practice/injury report for today and listed 17 players as being questionable for Monday night's game in New Orleans, including rookie left tackle Sebastian Vollmer (head).

Remember, Taylor hasn’t practiced since he tore ankle ligaments in early October. Given the fact that Taylor has been around more, I asked coach Bill Belichick today for an update.
