New England Patriots defensive tackle Alan Branch has won his appeal of a four-game suspension, a league source told ESPNs Field Yates.Branch was facing a suspension for violating the NFLs substance-abuse policy after reportedly testing positive for marijuana. He has been arguably the Patriots best interior defensive lineman, most recently praised by coach Bill Belichick for holding up multiple blockers in the middle of the defense.Branch, 31, has started all 11 of the Patriots games this season, recording 39 tackles and one sack. He was suspended by the Patriots for a few days in August for violating team rules.Branch pairs with 2015 first-round draft choice Malcom Brown as the teams starting tandem. Both usually come off the field in obvious passing situations.With Branchs status uncertain earlier in the week, the Patriots claimed defensive tackle Darius Kilgo on waivers from the Denver Broncos. Kilgo could still be part of the teams future plans as Branch is scheduled for unrestricted free agency after the season.ESPNs Mike Reiss contributed to this report. Adidas Superstar Cheapest Price .

A day after limping through his first practice since twisting his left knee, Kolb came out scrambling and firing one completion after another Tuesday. It was an impressive enough outing for coach Doug Marrone to suggest the seventh-year quarterback is on track to play in Buffalos preseason game against Minnesota on Friday. "I was happy today," Marrone said. "He looked really good to the point where were going to get him ready to play." Kolb had missed eight days of training camp and the Bills preseason-opening 44-20 win at Indianapolis on Sunday after slipping on a wet rubber mat in practice Aug. 3. The veteran free-agent addition is competing with rookie first-round draft pick EJ Manuel for the starting job. The update wasnt as positive for receiver T.J. Graham, who was held out of practice a day after straining his groin. Marrone doesnt expect Graham to return until after the game Friday. The Bills are already down their two most experienced receivers. Starter Stevie Johnson is expected to miss at least another week after pulling his left hamstring on Aug. 2. Brad Smith is also sidelined with a hamstring injury. Also Tuesday, starting safety Aaron Williams limped off the field and did not return after experiencing what Marrone called cramps. Reserve offensive lineman Thomas Wellch twisted his ankle near the end of practice while attempting to catch a pass in the end zone on a tackle-eligible play.dddddddddddd Welch was shoved down by linebacker Nigel Bradham before he could make the catch. Kolb looked like a completely different player than a day earlier, when he hobbled around the backfield and struggled to complete a pass. Wearing only a sleeve on his left knee on Tuesday, Kolb showed great mobility to avoid being sacked by Alex Carrington. On the next snap, Kolb dropped back and completed a long pass over the middle to Marquise Goodwin. Later, he hit DaRick Rogers on another deep pass. "He had some great reads, some great throws, and loved having him out there," offensive co-ordinator Nathaniel Hackett said. "It was good to have him back." Before practice, the Bills released reserve punter Brian Stahovich, in a move that opened the door for incumbent Shawn Powell to retain his job. Powell enters his second season after replacing long-time veteran Brian Moorman a month into last season. The Bills had signed Stahovich following a minicamp tryout in April in order to compete with Powell. At Indianapolis on Sunday, Stahovich averaged 41.3 yards on three punts, landing two of them inside the 20. Stahovich played at San Diego State, and was initially signed with Indianapolis last year. He was cut before the start of the season. ' ' '
