According to the Boston Globe's Christopher Gasper, Fred Taylor could miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to repair "severe ligament damage" in his right ankle.
Taylor is reportedly "facing the likelihood" of being done for the year, though there is a "small chance" he could return for the final month of the season. The Patriots, however, may not be willing or able to reserve a roster spot for the next two months. Though the 33-year-old is signed for next season at $2M, the Pats may decide to move on this offseason. Sammy Morris should be picked up in 12-team leagues, and Laurence Maroney is worth a flier as well to see if he can develop a hot hand with increased carries. Source: Boston Globe
