New England Patriots WR Danny Amendola is back on the practice field in full pads for the first time since October 3. Amendola was knocked out in week 6 after he took a scary hit to the head. He has been cleared from that concussion and is back on the field and it looks like he is on track to play this weekend against the Miami Dolphins. He will have to clear the week without any symptoms and then he will be good to go.

Could we have a weekend where both Rob Gronkowski and Danny Amendola are on the field?  That would be a nice boost to the Patriots offense.

The biggest question with Amendola is when will he go down again. He has been a magnet for injuries and has been on the sideline a ton already this season. He has only played in 147 snaps this year, but he does have 16 catches for 159 yards during that time. If he were able to play, he would be right back in that lineup making plays for Tom Brady and the offense.
