Woods (knee) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Woods missed New England's game in Week 7 at Tennessee because of a knee injury, but it now seems like he'll be back to full strength for Week 8. The Patriots' defensive backfield as a whole is relatively healthy at the moment, so Woods doesn't project to play a major role Sunday versus the Browns.

Woods (groin) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Woods was unavailable for the team's 20-13 loss to the Raiders in Week 1 due to a groin injury, but he now appears to be a full go ahead of Sunday's contest against the Dolphins. The cornerback could potentially even start in place of Christian Gonzalez (hamstring) versus Miami.

Woods (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Woods is the latest Patriots corner to be ruled out, along with Christian Gonzalez (hamstring). That will leave New England shorthanded in the secondary against Geno Smith and the Raiders, with Marcus Jones likely to take on a more prominent role as an outside corner.
