On their Saturday injury report, the Patriots listed Julian Edelman as out with the broken foot he suffered in Week 10 and Keshawn Martin as questionable due to a hamstring injury.

As of Monday, the wide receiver is heading in for an MRI to see the exact nature of the damage, according to multiple reports.
Danny Amendola will be limited in practice with a knee sprain this week, but could still play Sunday against Denver.
With Julien Edelman sidelined for the rest of the regular season, Amendola has emerged as Tom Brady’s top target.
With Amendola out, the Patriots are precariously thin at wide receiver (especially with Aaron Dobson having left the game earlier).
It’s unclear how long he’ll be out, but the Patriots know for certain he won’t play Sunday against the Broncos. They don’t have any wide receivers on the practice squad, but if they’re concerned about Amendola’s availability, they could call up tight ends Asante Cleveland or Joseph Fauria from the practice squad.
