This offseason, the New England Patriots inked veteran RB Joseph Addai to the roster, but according to one source he now appears to be on the bubble to make the final roster.

Running back Joseph Addai has been released by the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Spin:
Addai didnt even get a chance to prove his worth in training camp, and Stevan Ridley, Shane Vereen and Danny Woodhead remain the top three running backs on New Englands depth chart. The injury-prone Addais fantasy outlook did not look promising even before todays news.
