Patriots head coach Bill Belichick spoke to reporters on Friday about Tom Brady’s injury status—as he’s currently listed as probable (knee)—but as usual, he didn’t reveal much.
He probably knew that both Brady and Rob Gronkowski being listed on the injury report would be talking points, but he didn’t really do much talking, at all, especially when it came to the team’s quarterback.
On the expectation Tom Brady (knee/no practice Wed & Thu) plays, Bill Belichick says, "We'll list Tom on injury report, like we always do."

"Was that the answer you were hoping for?" Bill Belichick asks questioner (re: Brady). "I don't want to disappoint you."

Brady did practice with the team, though. But when he was asked about whether or not he’ll play, his response was “We’ll see.”

It’s safe to say Brady will be out there for the team’s divisional showdown with the Jets. It’s a rivalry that he rarely misses out on, and the team is likely just trying to take it easy on him during practices so he’s healthy heading into the playoffs.
