Patriots' Tom Brady: Returns to limited practice, listed as questionable

Brady (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets after returning to a limited practice Friday.

Analysis:

Per ESPN's Mike Reiss, "Sources have said there has been minimal to no concern about Brady's availability" for Sunday's contest, though of course the fact that the QB missed two straight practices this week is notable. As for how Brady looked at practice warm-ups Friday, Reiss indicated that the QB "appeared to be moving without restriction." Official confirmation of Brady's Week 12 status probably won't arrive until the Patriots' inactives are released in advance of Sunday's 4:25 ET kickoff, but we'd be very surprised if he didn't suit up this weekend.
