FOXBORO — Patriots defensive lineman Christian Barmore returned to practice Thursday after sitting out Wednesday’s session as part of an ongoing ramp-up to full football activity after he missed the first 10 games of the season with blood clots.

Barmore only practiced once last week before making his season debut against the Rams.

He was one of two players absent Wednesday, along with defensive lineman Deatrich Wise, who was the lone player missing Thursday.

The Patriots appear to be in good health ahead of Sunday’s kickoff at Miami. The team listed 13 players on its initial injury report, though only four were non-participants: Barmore, Wise, left tackle Vederian Lowe and defensive tackle Jaquelin Roy.

The Patriots will release their next injury report Thursday evening.
