HOUSTON -- New England Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi didn't appear hampered by a leg injury when the team practiced Wednesday for the Super Bowl.

Every New England player participated in the 90-minute workout; Bruschi injured his leg in the AFC championship game. Patriots tight end Christian Fauria and running back Patrick Pass were also listed on the injury report.
The Patriots moved their practice to the Houston Texans' indoor field to get out of the wind, switching from Rice University. Sunday's game will be played in Reliant Stadium, which has a retractable roof that will most likely be closed.
"We thought it would be in the best interests of the team to be in here," coach Bill Belichick told a pool reporter. "This is probably similar to the conditions we'll be playing in, in terms of wind."
Safety Eugene Wilson came to the sidelines at one point, but he returned to practice after stretching. Belichick said the player would be fine.
