    They promoted CB Eric Patterson from the practice squad to roster.

    …the Rams have signed CB Eric Patterson (Ball State) who was in camp w/Indy and w/Pats in offseason

    Note: this is from a hodgepodge of different sources, with a part from here and a part from there. The only part I identify is the paragraph from Brandt.

    Newly signed CB Eric Patterson comes over from offseason jaunts with the Patriots and Colts. Patterson was waived by the Colts after playing two games with them in 2015.

    Gil Brandt: Cornerback Eric Patterson (5-9 1/4, 197) ran the 40 in 4.5 and 4.53 seconds. He had a 36 1/2-inch vertical jump and 10-foot-2 broad jump. He did the short shuttle in 4.38 seconds and the three-cone drill in 7.01 seconds. He performed 18 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press. Patterson had a good pro day workout

    Positive: Nice-sized cornerback with average ball skills. Quick up the field on the blitz, sacrifices his body to make tackles and gives effort defending the run. Aggressive, lays heavy blows on opponents and competes hard.
    Negative: Slow backpedaling, struggles staying with receivers out of breaks and does not display sense of timing on pass defenses. Blows assignments on occasion.
    Analysis: Patterson offers potential as a dime back at the next level but his greatest value will be returning kicks.
