Julian Edelman and Martellus Bennett will play Week 13 despite being listed as questionable throughout the week, according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. With the season-ending injury to Rob Gronkowski, the New England Patriots had a glaring need for its top receiving targets to be on the field this week. That wish has been granted with Edelman and Bennett both on the field for Tom Brady against the Los Angeles Rams. In the thick of a race for the top overall seed in the AFC, every win is imperative. With both of these targets playing, that race may have gotten a bit easier.
