Patriots' Carlton Davis: Goes on active/NFI list

The Patriots have placed Davis (undisclosed) on the active/non-football injury list, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Davis won't be able to practice or participate in preseason games while on the NFI list, but he can be activated whenever he's medically cleared. The veteran cornerback signed with New England in March and is expected to be one of the team's starting cornerbacks in his first year with the club.
