Patriots Open Roster Spot By Releasing Long-Shot Defender as he officially decide to inked in a deal

Depth cornerback Kaleb Ford-Dement was one of a handful of players not on the field for New England Patriots training camp practice Friday.

Turns out, the undrafted free agent is no longer with the team.

The Patriots announced Friday evening they released Ford-Dement, who initially signed with New England in May out of Texas State.

The 24-year-old was a long shot to make the roster and his best chance at sticking around would have been on New England’s practice squad. It didn’t help matters that the 5-foot-11, 178-pound corner, who also played at Kilgore College, Old Dominion and Washington State during his collegiate career, was trying to make the Patriots at one of their deeper positions.

The Patriots cornerback group is highlighted by Christian Gonzalez, Jonathan Jones and Marcus Jones while Alex Austin, Shaun Wade, Marcellas Dial Jr., who the Patriots drafted in the sixth round this year, and Isaiah Bolden — he missed all of last season after a promising camp — battle for roster spots among others. That left Ford-Dement as the odd man out.

The Patriots now have two open roster spots as they move forward with training camp.

The New England Patriots entered their third training camp practice Friday after giving first-team left tackle reps to Chukwuma Okorafor each of the first two days. Okorafor worked with left guard Sidy Sow, center David Andrews and right guard Mike Onwenu during each of the two previous sessions. There was a rotation at right tackle, but not at left.

Well, it seems it was too early to jump to any tackle-related conclusions.

“I’ll just say this about the offensive line: the best five will play,” Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo said at Gillette Stadium on Friday, a similar message he’s shared previously. “Now, not going to get into who is playing guard and who is playing tackle, but as we continue to go throughout training camp and start to put on the pads, we’re going to put the best five out there.”

The Patriots mixed it up again during Day 3, and their four different first-team tackles represented the most changes thus far.

When starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett was behind center during the first 11-on-11 session, third-round Caedan Wallace was at left tackle and Okorafor was at right tackle. Sow, Andrews and Onwenu made up the interior, from left to right, as they had previously.

was at right tackle. Sow, Andrews and Onwenu made up the interior, from left to right, as they had previously.

Then in the second 11-on-11 session, again with Brissett behind center, Vederian Lowe was at left tackle while Calvin Anderson was at right tackle. Again, Sow, Andrews and Onwenu filled the interior.

Both Anderson (Day 1) and Lowe (Day 2) previously worked with the first unit, but did so on the right side.
