The New England Patriots made three moves ahead of training camp’s opening practice, with the placement of veteran offensive tackle Calvin Anderson on the non-football illness list among them.
Anderson, 27, continues to count on New England’s active roster and is eligible to return to the field at any time during the preseason.
The 2019 undrafted free agent out of Rice and Texas returned to his first NFL club in March on a two-year contract. Anderson did so after stops with the New York Jets and Denver Broncos. The swing bookend started 12 of his 41 appearances while with the latter, seeing 431 offensive snaps last campaign.
