The Patriots announced on Saturday that they have placed cornerback Tarell Brown on season-ending injured reserve with a foot injury.
Brown, signed as a free agent during Patriots training camp, had already been ruled out of the game Sunday against the Colts after missing two practices this week.
The foot issue has been a recurring one for Brown, who was placed on season-ending injured reserve at the end of last season as a member of the Raiders. Brown dressed for New England's Week 3 win over the Jaguars but was the only player who did not see any action.
