Bubble For Two

They always say that you can't make the team if you don't practice. Such is the case with DE Jermaine Cunningham and CB Ras-I Dowling. Both are really on the roster bubble with the Pats this point.

All teams will get trimmed from 90 to 75 on August 27th. Will a decision be made at that point to release them or move to IR? The team isn't tipping its hand or talking about the physical condition of the players.

Their situation is very typical around the league; a couple of draft picks who never panned out because of injuries. Neither one of them has stayed on the field during their career.
