The Patriots added linebacker Jamie Collins to the injury report today. He is now questionable with an illness.
This is the last thing the Patriots need for their defensive star, but the unknown element is the extent of the illness. If Collins is dealing with the flu, which is common around this time of year, then so be it. But if he's dealing with an illness on the level that sidelined Ryan Wendell for three weeks and ended Rufus Johnson's season, that's going to be a much worse situation.
The Patriots have been extremely secretive with the Wendell and Johnson situations.
