Final list of cuts and initial 53-man roster for Patriots

Sports Final: Steve Burton says not to panic about the New England Patriots

BOSTON -- With the deadline to trim rosters to 53 players hitting on Tuesday, the New England Patriots were busy.

The team placed the following players on injured reserve:

DE Henry Anderson
WR Kristian Wilkerson

Defensive lineman Daniel Ekuale was placed on the suspended list, for his two-game suspension that was issued in June.

The following players were cut:

TE Devin Asiasi
DB Justin Bethel
OL Drew Desjarlais
OL Yasir Durant
OL James Ferentz
OL Arlington Hambright
WR Josh Hammond
RB Kevin Harris
DB Brad Hawkins
WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey
LB Harvey Langi
LB Cameron McGrone
CB Terrance Mitchell
OL Bill Murray
WR Tre Nixon
DL Jeremiah Pharms Jr.
DL LaBryan Ray
OL Kody Russey
OL Will Sherman
TE Matt Sokol
RB J.J. Taylor
K Tristan Vizcaino
LB Nate Wieland
TE Jalen Wydermyer

That leaves 53 players on the initial 53-man roster. Some -- like Tyquan Thornton and perhaps Ty Montgomery -- will be placed on IR after making the roster, thus opening a temporary spot for someone else. 

The initial 53-man roster is below. An asterisk denotes a rookie, while a double asterisk denotes an undrafted rookie.

WR Nelson Agholor

P Jake Bailey
