The teams have submitted their injury reports. Nothing serious or unexpected for either team. The Falcons aren’t even listing anyone at all.

For the Patriots, they’ve got Chris Hogan, Martellus Bennett and Malcolm Mitchell as questionable, but all of those guys are going to play. That’s just kind of how they list guys in New England.

Earlier in the week I saw mention of the Patriots using two players as Julio Jones in practice – both Michael Floyd and Matthew Slater were in #11 jerseys. I take that as confirmation that there’s no need to worry too much about Floyd being used as their No. 3 receiver this week. Mitchell struggled in the AFC Championship game, but he should continue to fill that role, with Floyd maybe not even active.

So my final projections for this game are similar to what I posted earlier in the week. I will print them two different ways – first for standard scoring, then for PPR.
