NEW YORK -- Tom Brady could be without another of his favorite targets.New England wide receiver Danny Amendola left late in the third quarter of the Patriots 26-10 win over Los Angeles with an ankle injury and did not return.He was later spotted walking on crutches in the tunnel underneath Gillette Stadium.Should he miss any playing time, it would be the latest blow to a team thats already lost tight end Rob Gronkowski to season-ending back surgery last week. It also creates a hole on special teams, where Amendola also serves as the primary punt returner.Any time you lose a guy like Danny whos another big piece of this team, its terrible, receiver Julian Edelman said.Hes a good leader on this team. He comes in and he makes plays. He catches first downs like its nothing. He makes big plays in the special-teams game. So its gonna be tough.Patriots cornerback Eric Rowe also did not return after leaving with a hamstring injury.Giants defensive lineman Jason Pierre-Paul left in the second quarter of New Yorks 24-14 loss at Pittsburgh with a groin injury.Pierre-Paul was hurt on a screen pass late in the first half. He walked slowly to the locker room but did not appear limping, but was ruled out for the rest of the game in the second half.New York also lost cornerback Coty Sensabaugh to a rib injury.Seattle safety Earl Thomas was taken to the locker room on a cart after suffering a left leg injury going for an interception during the Seahawks game against Carolina.Thomas was hurt early in the second quarter when he collided with teammate Kam Chancellor as both went after a pass from Carolina quarterback Cam Newton.Thomas attempted to walk off the field, but needed help from teammates and did not put any weight on his leg. He was eventually loaded on the cart and taken for further examination.Some other significant injuries:- Atlanta lost left tackle Jake Matthews to a left knee injury in the first half of the Falcons 29-28 loss to Kansas City.- Houston wide receiver Braxton Miller (shoulder) left in the first half of the Texans 21-13 loss at Green Bay and did not return.- Tampa Bay wide receiver Cecil Shorts III was taken off the field on a cart after sustaining a knee injury on a hard hit by San Diegos Jahleel Addae following a catch on the Bucs first possession of a 28-21 win.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLTodd Gurley II Rams Jersey . -- Nate Robinson has played for seven teams, so beating one of them is no longer a rare occurrence.

In this case, Durant is joining a largely intact Golden State core.
