Patriots Place Jenkins on IR

The Patriots placed leading receiver Wes Welker on injured reserved today, and his roster spot was taken by linebacker Thomas Williams.

Receivers Nick Moore and Robert Ortiz were signed to the practice squad, with one taking the place of receiver Darnell Jenkins, who was placed on injured list with an ankle injury. Jenkins was seen earlier in the week wearing a protective boot on his right ankle.
