The New England Patriots started the second half of Sunday's AFC Championship game without CB Kyle Arrington. He is currently out with an eye injury, according to the Patriots. It's unclear exactly what happened but he was not on the field to start the second half.

The team says Arrington is officially questionable to return.

Arrington led the NFL in interceptions this season with seven so clearly his absence will be missed, whether it's for one series or the rest of the game. The Patriots have Sterling Moore at corner and Antwaun Molden at nickel. That's a fairly significant drop-off for the Patriots.

UPDATE: Arrington returned to the game in the fourth quarter. He should play in the Super Bowl.
