Clark was penalized 15 yards for unnecessary roughness on the play. Pats RB Kevin Faulk said, “If Wes Welker stays down, then it must have been a pretty hard hit. ...” Welker finished with four catches for 30 yards, ending his NFL record streak of 11 games with at least six receptions to start a season. He entered the game with 80 receptions, second in the NFL to Houston’s Andre Johnson, who had 81. We'll have more on his status as further details come to light.
