Julian Edelman left Sunday's game against the Jets at the end of the first half with a chest/rib injury.
Appearing on Westwood One Radio prior to Monday Night Football, Tom Brady gave an update on his No. 1 target.
"I think he's still working towards some tests," he said. "I think it's probably going to work through it all week. He's a tough guy. I'd say Julian — I've played with a lot of warriors over the years — Julian is certainly one of them. Football is a very violent sport. You can't take that for granted. When you do come off the field healthy, even when you lose I think the perspective I've gained is you still come out with somewhat of a victory if you're not injured because it's a contact sport.
"Julian, he's tough, he wants to be out there. He's going to do everything he can do to get ready. We'll see how it plays out over the course of the week."
According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, Edelman will "be good" and he "hasn't been ruled out" yet for Sunday's game in Buffalo.
Edelman has caught 17 passes on 25 targets for 196 yards and a touchdown this season. His presence on the field is even more important now that Antonio Brown is out of the picture.
