Patriots cut DL Damione Lewis, OL Eric Ghiaciuc
Updated: September 3, 2010, 5:16 PM
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - The New England Patriots have released defensive lineman Damione Lewis and offensive lineman Eric Ghiaciuc.
Friday's moves came one day before the deadline for teams to reduce their rosters to the regular-season limit of 53 players.
Lewis, a first-round draft pick by the St. Louis Rams in 2001, was signed as a free agent on April 10 after spending the past four seasons with the Carolina Panthers. He had been expected to provide depth after defensive end Jarvis Green left as a free agent for the Denver Broncos.
Ghiaciuc signed with the Patriots on Aug. 4 after five NFL seasons, his first four with the Cincinnati Bengals and then the San Diego Chargers last season.
