Blogged under Big Pats News,Bloglockers,Front Page,Injury Reports by admin on Friday 2 November 2007 at 4:15 pm

The Patriots have placed Sammy Morris on Injured Reserve with a chest injury.  This will hurt the Patriots a little bit as Morris was really running well this season.  Morris played in 6 games (2 starts) this season for the Patriots and he rushed for 384 yards on 85 carries (4.5 ypc) with 3 TD runs.  He also caught 6 passes for 35 yards (5.8 avg).  Kevin Faulk will take over as the #2 RB on the Patriots and he should get a lot of work.  Faulk has rushed for 156 yards on 33 carries (4.7 ypc) so far this season and he also has caught 22 passes for 190 yards (8.6 avg).  Heath Evans will also get a bump in carries because of the injury to Morris.  Evans has carried the ball 19 times for 58 yards (3.1 ypc) so far this season and he also has caught 1 pass for 29 yards.
