The Patriots are en route to Buffalo for a divisional matchup with the Bills, where they'll be down at least one key starter on Sunday.

New England has downgraded starting safety Jabrill Peppers (hamstring) and WR Kayshon Boutte (illness) to out on Saturday. Peppers, who missed last week's win in Denver, is not a surprising downgrade after he only participated in practice this past week on Friday. Boutte also missed Thursday's practice, but it was listed as a non-injury related absence.
