FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The New England Patriots won't have running backs LaMont Jordan and Sammy Morris again. Both are inactive for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills in Gillette Stadium.

Undrafted rookie BenJarvus Green-Ellis is expected to start again in the backfield.

This will be the fifth straight game Jordan has missed with a calf injury and the third in a row Morris has missed because of a sprained knee.

The Patriots also scratched defensive backs Terrence Wheatley and Lewis Sanders and reserve offensive linemen Wesley Britt and Billy Yates.
