Robert Spillane: full participant Thursday for Patriots (knee)

THE FACT. New England linebacker Robert Spillane practiced in full on Thursday with a knee injury after being limited Wednesday, per the official Week 2 injury report published on Steelers.com ahead of Sunday's Pittsburgh-New England game.

THE VERDICT. Limited on Wednesday to full on Thursday is the sequence that almost always ends with no game designation at all. IDP: he is on track to play, so there is no reason to swap him out on the knee. Redraft and Dynasty: nothing to do, he offers no offensive value. Check Friday's final report only to confirm he stays off it.
