Danny Amendola shows on injury report with a groin problem

Injury reports are here!

The Patriots released their first one today, usually there's nothing to dissect in these Patriots reports. Perhaps there isn't much here either, but Amendola's inclusion is significant.

Amendola missed the last two preseason games with an injury. Though, if the fourth one was a regular season game you'd think he would've played.

Still, the injury report at least reveals what he was dealing with - a groin injury. The injury was previously not disclosed.

It's unlikely it is a serious injury at this point though with the receiver's history, any injury bears monitoring. Just because he's on the injury report though doesn't mean he's hurting. Brady was listed on the report for years as probable with a shoulder injury.

That's Belichick for ya!
