Injury: Shoulder

Status: Limited Practice on Friday. Questionable for Week 18 at Buffalo

UPDATE (JAN. 8): Meyers (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Bills after only limited practice this week, according to Evan Lazar of the Patriots’ official website.

UPDATE (JAN. 5): Meyers was absent from practice on Wednesday.

UPDATE (DEC. 24): Meyers (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday’s game against the Bengals after practicing in a limited capacity from Tuesday to Thursday, according to Evan Lazar of the Patriots’ official website.

UPDATE (DEC. 22): Meyers (shoulder) was unable to participate in practice on Wednesday.

UPDATE (Dec. 18): Meyers (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Raiders, according to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald.

Meyers returned to practice in a limited capacity on Friday after missing the Cardinals’ win on Monday, and he appears to be on track to return to the lineup on Sunday.

The wide receiver’s status for Week 15 will be determined once the Patriots’ inactive list is released ahead of the team’s 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Meyers finished the week with limited practice, giving him a chance to play this weekend after missing one game.

Meanwhile, wide receiver DeVante Parker has been ruled out of Sunday’s game due to a concussion. Meyers’ Week 15 availability is expected to be announced late Saturday or early Sunday, but if he is, the 26-year-old would presumably be in line to reclaim a key role in a Patriots wideout corps that also includes Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne, and Tyquan Thornton.
