New England Patriots Punter Could Return

New England Patriots punter Jake Bailey has not appeared in a game since Week 9. However, things may change on that front for Week 17, as he has returned to practice.

Although the punter position is not the most important, it still would be good for the Patriots to have another regular available for when they take on the Miami Dolphins. After all, they are currently battling it out for the final playoff spot.

In nine games this season, Bailey has averaged 42.1 yards per punt.
