Greg Gumbel has just announced that running back Corey Dillon will not play for the Patriots this afternoon in Pittsburgh. Dillon was listed as questionable for today’s game, and his thigh injury may be more serious than initially thought. Kevin Faulk will start.
Of course, the Patriots won the Super Bowl last year with Kevin Faulk and Antowain Smith at running back, so I doubt this will make too much of a difference today.
