A league source tells the Boston Globe that Patriots NT Vince Wilfork has been diagnosed with a torn Achilles' tendon.
If true, it means Wilfork's season is over, and
that the Patriots have a gaping hole on the front line of their

and did not return. Wilfork has missed just six games in 10 NFL seasons,
and zero since 2009. Joe Vellano and Chris Jones are next up on the
depth chart, but the Pats will likely be in the market for help.
