An already potent New England offense will have another weapon on Sunday when the Patriots host the rival New York Jets.
Tight end Aaron Hernandez is active after missing two games with a knee injury, which had him listed as questionable for Week 5.
When asked about his knee earlier in the week, Hernandez drew attention for acting by like a Neanderthal with reporters Thursday. He had 14 catches for 165 yards and two touchdowns in the Patriots' first two games of the year.
Albert Haynesworth will also make his return after missing two games with a back issue.
