Patriots inactives: QB Ryan Mallett, RBs Stevan Ridley and Shane Vereen, LB Gary Guyton, OG Donald Thomas, RT Sebastian Vollmer and WR Chad Ochocinco. Rookie running back Stevan Ridley, who has run well but fumbled in each of the team's last two games, will not dress. Ochocinco was in Florida to attend his father's funeral for part of the week. But he was on the field for only one play in last week's victory over Denver. Source: CBS Sports
