Carlton Davis back at Patriots practice ahead of Jaguars game
The short version
- Carlton Davis III practiced Wednesday after missing Week 2 with a neck injury
- His status for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars remains uncertain
- Davis has three tackles this season, all in Week 1 against Seattle
- The Patriots are also dealing with injuries to safeties Craig Woodson and Dell Pettus
The New England cornerback returned to practice Wednesday after sitting out Week 2 with a neck injury.
New England Patriots cornerback Carlton Davis III was back on the practice field Wednesday, according to Patriots Wire's Sophie Weller. Davis had been sidelined by a neck injury and did not play in the team's Week 2 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
His return to practice does not ensure he will suit up Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. How much work he gets during the rest of the week, along with the Patriots' official injury report, should offer a clearer picture of his availability.
Davis has recorded three tackles this season, all in New England's 13-10 Week 1 defeat against the Seattle Seahawks. Getting him back would help a secondary that is also dealing with injuries at safety, where Craig Woodson and Dell Pettus are banged up.
