Patriots Chung Inactive Against Jets

BOSTON (CBS) - Safety Patrick Chung is inactive for the Patriots in their Sunday night showdown with the New York Jets.

Chung hurt his ankle in last week's loss to the New York Giants. He missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, and had limited participation in Friday's session.

The depth in the Patriots secondary will be tested, with rookie Sterling Moore getting his first career start for Chung.

Here is the full list of Patriots inactives:

Patrick Chung           S

Taylor Price             WR

Brandon Spikes       LB

Dane Fletcher          LB

Ryan Mallett             Q

Shane Vereen          RB

Donald Thomas        OL

Taylor Price wants to play, but Chad Ochocinco has his spot. It's a tough position for him to be in.  He realistically could give the team the same numbers that Chad has given; Chad just has the bigger paycheck...

Nate Solder is fine after landing on the injury report late Saturday night with a concussion, and Jermaine Cunningham is back in the line-up as well.
