According to a team source, Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez (ankle) is "very close" to returning to game action. Remember that this is Bill Belichick's team we're talking about here. It's entirely possible -- maybe even likely -- that they leaked this information to give the Broncos a little extra to plan for on Sunday. Hernandez is only 3 weeks removed from a high-ankle sprain, and we're still betting against him playing this weekend. He has practiced the past 2 days though. And he looks good. We're guessing he'll return for Week 6.
