Rhamondre Stevenson appears on track to play on Sunday after being upgraded in the final Patriots injury report of the week.

Rhamondre Stevenson is trending upward ahead of the New England Patriots' next game.

Stevenson is listed as questionable with a foot injury on the final Patriots injury report of Week 7, as the team gets ready across the pond for a battle of 1-5 teams against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at Wembley Stadium. The fourth-year running back was a full participant in Friday's practice, after being absent on Wednesday and Thursday.

Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo said Stevenson would "probably be a game-time decision" for Sunday. He missed last Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans with the same foot injury.

"I'm feeling good right now," Stevenson told reporters in London on Friday. "Had to take a couple days off, but yeah, I'm feeling like I should be ready to play on Sunday."

Stevenson is one of seven players listed as questionable for Sunday's game. Here are the other six:

WR Javon Baker, Illness (did not participate)
LB Curtis Jacobs, Knee (limited)
G Michael Jordan, Ankle (limited)
CB Jonathan Jones, Shoulder (full participation)
LB Sione Takitaki, Knee (limited)
CB Marco Wilson, Groin (limited)

Quarterback Drake Maye (knee) was one of 10 players removed from Friday's injury report entirely, after he and Mayo expressed confidence that he could play Sunday. The rest: CB Isaiah Bolden, WR Kendrick Bourne, LS Joe Cardona, S Kyle Dugger, DT Davon Godchaux, LB Anfernee Jennings, CB Marcus Jones, S Marte Mapu, and WR K.J. Osborn.

At this point, it would be surprising if Stevenson is inactive for the game, after practicing in full on Friday. But his absence on Wednesday and Thursday suggests that Antonio Gibson will still have an appreciable workload in the backfield. JaMycal Hasty could also mix in for some touches, while Terrell Jennings made his NFL debut last Sunday as a practice squad elevation.

The Patriots and Jaguars are scheduled to kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET from London on Sunday morning. The game will be broadcast on the NFL Network, and you can also get the call of the game with Bob Socci and Scott Zolak on 98.5 The Sports Hub.
