New England Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett is less than 100 percent, but he'll play through his injuries Sunday in the AFC title game.

Bennett was listed as a limited participant in practice all week due to a knee injury, but the pass-catcher has a cracked bone and bone chips in his ankle, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Bennett recorded a single catch for four yards in last week's win over the Houston Texans and he has yet to miss a game this season.

Fellow tight end Rob Gronkowski has been sidelined since Week 11 and underwent back surgery.
