As the Patriots landed in Nashville for their game on Sunday against the Titans, the team ruled out two more players for the season opener. Offensive lineman Nick McDonald (shoulder) and rookie defensive back Alfonzo Dennard (hamstring) joined running back Shane Vereen (foot) as players who will miss the contest.
McDonald injured his shoulder in the next-to-last preseason game on Aug. 24 against Tampa Bay while Dennard was a late addition to the injury report on Friday and was limited in practice.
