Leads Pats in tackles Sunday
Peppers recorded nine tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 25-24 loss versus the Colts. Peppers returned from an eight-game absence in Week 13 and picked up right where he left off, playing all 58 of New England's defensive snaps and tallying a season-high tackle total. He'll be on the IDP radar for the fantasy playoffs following the Patriots' bye in Week 14.
Returning for Week 13
Peppers (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Indianapolis. Peppers returned to practice Wednesday after being removed from the commissioner's exempt list Monday. He was limited in practice all week due to a knee injury, but he will play Sunday in his first game since Week 4 against the 49ers. Peppers is expected to reclaim his starting spot at free safety while Jaylinn Hawkins serves in a reserve role.
Listed as questionable for Week 13
Peppers (knee) is questionable to play against the Colts on Sunday. Peppers was removed from the commissioner's exempt list Monday, and he's been limited in practice all week due to a knee injury. His status for Sunday's game may not be known until the Patriots release their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. In the four games prior to his suspension, Peppers logged 23 tackles (11 solo) and two pass defenses (including one interception).
Dealing with knee issue
Peppers (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. Peppers returned to practice Wednesday after being removed from the commissioner's exempt list Monday, but he appears to have picked up a knee injury despite not playing in the Patriots' last eight games. His participation Thursday and Friday will likely offer the best insight into whether he can return for Sunday's matchup against the Colts.
Expects to return to practice
Coach Jerod Mayo said Tuesday that he anticipates Peppers will practice during the week after being removed from the commissioner exempt list, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports. The issue that led to Peppers' arrest and placement on the commissioner exempt list back in October is still the subject of a league inquiry, but it looks like he'll have the okay to practice ahead of Week 13. Whether he'll play versus the Colts is still up in the air.
Can return to team activities
Peppers was removed from the league's commissioner exempt list Monday, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports. The league is still investigating the issue that led to Peppers being arrested in early October and landed him on the list, but for now, at least, he can practice and play for the Patriots again.
Placed on exempt list
The NFL has placed Peppers (shoulder) on the commissioner exempt list Monday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. Peppers' placement on the list comes after he pled not guilty Monday after being arrested Saturday in Braintree, Mass. on charges that include strangulation and drug possession. As long as the safety remains on the list, he can't practice or attend games. In four appearances this season before he sat out this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins with a shoulder injury, Peppers recorded 23 tackles and an interception.
Arrested on multiple charges
Peppers (shoulder) was arrested Saturday in Braintree, Mass. on charges of assault and battery, strangulation and possession of a class "B" substance, NFL.com reports. According to the police, Peppers was arrested after officers responded to a disturbance at a Braintree home stemming from an alleged altercation between two people. Peppers -- who was inactive for Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Dolphins due to a shoulder injury -- is scheduled to appear in court Monday following his arrest. The Patriots and the NFL will likely wait for more details to emerge and allow the legal process to play out before the 29-year-old safety is subject to discipline.
Won't play vs. Miami
Peppers (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's divisional game against the Dolphins, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports. Peppers injured his shoulder in Week 4 against the 49ers. He was able to log back-to-back limited practice sessions to end the week, but it appears his shoulder injury is too severe enough for him to play Sunday. Peppers' next chance at suiting up will be against the Texans in Week 6. Dell Pettus and Jaylinn Hawkins could serve as the Patriots' starting safeties due to Peppers being ruled out and Kyle Dugger listed as questionable after missing practice all week due to an ankle injury.
