When the Patriots took the practice Wednesday, they did so without the man in the middle of it all.
Via Phil Perry of CSNNE.com, rookie center Bryan Stork was missing from practice, after suffering a right knee injury in last week’s win over the Ravens.
The rookie center has played well this year, and when he left last week’s game, they shifted right guard Ryan Wendall to the middle and put Josh Kline in at right guard.
Whether they stick with that remains to be seen, but the fourth-rounder added some stability since entering the starting lineup early this season, and changes up front are tough to deal with this time of year.
