    The New England Patriots announced that first-year safety Ross Ventrone has been placed on waivers. Ventrone has shuttled between the team's practice squad and active roster throughout the season, dressing for eight games and recording a pair of tackles. Defensive tackle Cedric McKinley has been promoted from the practice squad. The 6-foot-6, 281-pound McKinley played his college ball at the University of Minnesota and had signed with the Minnesota Vikings as an undrafted free agent in 2010. Waived before last season's training camp, McKinley spent the year out of football before re-joining the Vikings after the lockout ended.
