Amendola, Hightower and Slater officially listed as DNPs on Wednesday injury report

FOXBOROUGH — Danny Amendola (concussion/knee), Dont’a Hightower (knee), Matthew Slater (hamstring) and Vincent Valentine (knee) all did not practice for the Patriots Wednesday afternoon.

Amendola and Hightower were injured in the regular season opener against the Chiefs. (For what it's worth, both Amendola and Hightower were spotted in the locker room after practice.)

That group was joined on the injury report by five players who were listed as limited: Adam Butler (knee), Marcus Cannon (ankle), Nate Ebner (shoulder), Cameron Fleming (ankle) and Devin McCourty (groin).

The Patriots continue prep work for Sunday’s contest against the Saints in New Orleans.
