  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Suiting up Week 5

    Woodson (shoulder) is active Week 5 against the Raiders.

    Woodson will suit up for the second consecutive week despite logging only limited practices Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The second-year defensive back dealt with a similar injury a week ago, but still logged three combined tackles and an interception on 58 defensive snaps.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Still working through shoulder issue

    Woodson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Las Vegas.

    Woodson picked up a shoulder injury against the Steelers in Week 2, which prevented him from playing in Week 3 against the Jaguars. He was cleared for Week 4 against the Bills, but the second-year safety is still not fully recovered from his injury, and his limited practice participation was enough for him to be tagged as questionable for Sunday's game. Jaylen Reed would likely start next to Kevin Byard at safety if Woodson doesn't play.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Cleared to play in Week 4

    Woodson (shoulder) is active against Buffalo on Sunday.

    Woodson has been officially cleared to return from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury, and his return means Jaylen Reed will revert to a rotational role in the secondary. Woodson ha 12 tackles (nine solo) and one pass defense across two regular-season games.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Iffy for Week 4

    Woodson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Buffalo, Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports.

    Woodson suffered a shoulder injury against the Steelers in Week 2, and the injury was severe enough for him to be sidelined for Week 3 against the Jaguars. He was a limited practice participant in all three practices during Week 4 prep, and he has a chance to return for Sunday's AFC East tilt. Jaylen Reed would once again be in line for a starting role in the secondary if Woodson is unable to play against the Bills.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Won't suit up against Jags

    Woodson (shoulder) is inactive Week 3 against the Jaguars.

    Woodson only saw the practice field this week for a limited session on Friday, so it's not too surprising to see the second-year safety end up on the shelf. Jaylen Reed and Mike Brown are candidates to see extra snaps in the secondary in Woodson's stead.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Questionable for Week 3

    Woodson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Woodson was upgraded to a limited participant in Friday's practice after missing the Wednesday and Thursday sessions due to a shoulder injury. The late upgrade in practice participation is a good sign for the starting strong safety, but it remains unclear if one partial practice will be enough to give Woodson the green light to suit up for Sunday's contest.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Misses another practice

    Woodson (shoulder) did not practice Thursday.

    Woodson suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday's 20-3 win over Pittsburgh. He didn't practice Wednesday, with that trend continuing Thursday. The 25-year-old doesn't appear to be heading in a favorable direction, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him carry an injury designation for the Week 3 clash with the Jaguars. If Woodson isn't available, Jaylen Reed may continue to be more involved.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Won't return Sunday

    Woodson (shoulder) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Woodson sustained a shoulder injury in the second half, and medical staff have determined that the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for the rest of Week 2. Jaylen Reed will stay in at safety in Woodson's absence.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Exits game due to shoulder injury

    Woodson (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Woodson is being evaluated by medical staff in the locker room to determine whether he can return Sunday. Jaylen Reed will take over at safety for as long as Woodson is sidelined.

  • Patriots' Craig Woodson: Makes five tackles Wednesday

    Woodson recorded five tackles (five solo) during Wednesday's 13-10 loss at Seattle.

    Woodson's five tackles in Week 1 were good enough to tie for the second-highest total on the team in a game where the Seahawks only ran 50 plays on offense. Woodson was on the field for all of those, and he should play a similar role in Week 2 versus the Steelers.
