Patriots' K.J. Osborn: Finds end zone
K.J. Osborn recorded two receptions on three targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars.Osborn looked to be phased out of the New England offense, as he failed to log a snap in Week 6. However, he managed to make an impact Sunday with DeMario Douglas (illness) held out for much of the second half and Ja'Lynn Polk continuing to struggle. Osborn's primary impact came midway through the fourth quarter when he hauled in a 22-yard touchdown reception. He'll likely return to a minimal role in Week 8 against the Jets, though it will be worth monitoring the health of the New England Patriots' other pass catchers.

Osborn was active for Sunday's 41-21 loss to the Texans but didn't play in the contest, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.Osborn, who was inactive Week 5 due to a shoulder injury, was limited in practice last week, but he ended up in uniform Sunday, with Tyquan Thornton and Javon Baker being healthy scratches versus Houston. While Osborn didn't see any snaps in the contest, DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte, Ja'Lynn Polk and Kendrick Bourne handled New England's WR duties. Perhaps once Osborn distances himself further from his shoulder issue, he'll find himself back in the rotation, but for now he's off the fantasy radar.

Osborn (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.It would be surprising if Osborn managed to suit up considering he didn't practice in any capacity all week, but the New England Patriots are leaving the door open for the wide receiver to play with a questionable designation.
