FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) -The New England Patriots say they have placed wide receiver Wes Welker on the active/physically unable to perform list.
Welker, who has made a strong recovery from knee surgery in February, could come off the list at any time, the Patriots said Tuesday. New England begins training camp on Thursday.
Welker had surgery after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee on the Patriots' fourth offensive play of a 34-27 loss at Houston in the regular-season finale. He also damaged his medial collateral ligament, which didn't require surgery, on the play when he planted his left leg after making his NFL-leading 123rd catch of the season.
The Patriots also placed linebacker Shawn Crable and rookie defensive lineman Kade Weston on the same list.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
