Neal, Washington OUT

The Patriots have downgraded guard Stephen Neal (shoulder) and receiver Kelley Washington (hamstring) to out for tomorrow's game with Cincinnati.

The rest of the injury list remains as follows:

QB Tom Brady, right shoulder -- probable
LB Rosevelt Colvin, ankle -- questionable
CB Randall Gay, thigh -- questionable
RB Laurence Maroney, groin -- questionable
WR Donte Stallworth, knee -- questionable
NT Vince Wilfork, shoulder -- questionable
S Eugene Wilson, ankle -- questionable
DE Mike Wright, knee -- questionable
G Billy Yates, shoulder -- questionable

Players who are not out made the trip to Ohio, meaning there's a chance they'll play. That includes Maroney, who had a career day last year against the Bengals.

Yates, listed as Neal's backup, did play last week, but Russ Hochstein started at right guard.

For Cincinnati, CB Deltha O'Neal (dental/tooth) was added to the list. He is probable. OL Willie Anderson remains probable; he practiced Saturday after not practicing Friday. G Stacy Andrews (shoulder) participated fully after having limited participation on Friday; he remains questionable.
