The final injury report of the season is out, and it’s not a dramatic one.
Which, of course, is part of the reason these two teams are here.
The only real change on the report Friday is that Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor was listed as a limited participant in practice today with a knee injury, after not previously appearing on the report.
But he’s listed as probable for Sunday’s game, as are five other teammates: Tackle Justin Britt (knee), running back Marshawn Lynch (back), cornerback Richard Sherman (elbow), guard J.R. Sweezy (ankle) and safety Earl Thomas (shoulder).
The Patriots list is slightly longer, but doesn’t contain anything major.
Center Bryan Stork, who has been limited in practice this week with a knee injury, is listed as questionable.
Six other Patriots are listed as probable for the game: Linebacker Akeem Ayers (knee), quarterback Tom Brady (ankle), linebacker Dont’a Hightower (shoulder), defensive tackle Chris Jones (elbow), cornerback Darrelle Revis (not injury related) and defensive tackle Sealver Siliga (foot).
Brady’s on the report as he often is, but has been listed as a full participant in practice all week.
The lack of news on the injury report is good news, as the two best teams in the league get to see each other near their best.
