ESPN's Sal Paolantonio confirms that Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez (ankle) is unlikely to play against the Broncos later today. "I'm being told he's probably not going to play today," were Sal Pal's exact words. New England tried to keep Denver guessing throughout the week, but Hernandez was always a long shot to play just 3 weeks removed from a high-ankle sprain. It looks like he could be back for Week 6 though. Paolantonio also confirms that TE Rob Gronkowski (hip) is fully expected to play today.
