The Patriots are set to have a new punter in Week 1.
Bryce Baringer suffered an injury in the team's final preseason game and was placed on injured reserve Monday. They did not add a punter to the 53-man roster, but Mitch Wishnowsky signed to the practice squad after being released by the Bills on Sunday,.
Baringer will be eligible to return to action during the season, but will have to miss at least the first four games.
The Patriots also placed linebacker Khalil Jacobs on injured reserve. Linebacker K.J. Britt and center Ben Brown were released while tight end Cameron Latu and linebacker Darius Muasau have been claimed off waivers, so the Patriots have a pair of open spots on the active roster.
The Patriots also signed S Mike Brown, WR Kyle Dixon, WR Cameron Dorner, DT Eric Gregory, RB Hassan Haskins, RB Lan Larison, T Lorenz Metz, DT Jeremiah Pharms Jr., OL Jacob Rizy, CB Kindle Vildor, and LB Riley Wilson to the practice squad. All of those players were part of the final cuts in New England.
