East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - The New England Patriots will be without wide receiver Julian Edelman for today's AFC East contest against the New York Jets.
Edelman is sidelined due to a thigh injury and a concussion. Danny Amendola will start in his place.
Also out for the Patriots is running back LeGarrette Blount (shoulder). That means Jonas Gray should get more carries.
