Patriots' Robert Spillane: Questionable for the Super Bowl
Spillane (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8.
Spillane was a non-participant in all three practices this week due to an ankle injury. The linebacker logged just 13 defensive snaps in last Sunday's AFC Championship Game victory over the Broncos and was unable to return after a first-quarter exit. The 30-year-old will have another week to rest and recuperate, and his status for Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks will likely depend on his ability to log consecutive practices in the days leading up to the contest.

The 30-year-old linebacker led New England's defense in total tackles during the regular season, recording 97 stops over just 13 contests. If he's unable to suit up for the Super Bowl LX matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8, expect Jack Gibbens to have an expanded role with the Patriots' first-team defense.

Patriots' Robert Spillane: DNP to open Week 18 prep
Spillane (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
Spillane has been inactive for each of the Patriots' last two games due to an ankle injury, though he's technically not played in three consecutive games after playing zero snaps while being active during the Patriots' Week 15 loss to the Bills. He also hasn't been able to practice since sustaining the injury in Week 14 against the Giants, so he's unlikely to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Dolphins unless he were to log at least a limited session over the next two days.
