Rotowire
Etling was waived by the Patriots on Saturday, Mark Daniels of The Providence Journal reports.
The rookie seventh-round pick apparently didn't quite do enough to convince the Patriots they should keep three quarterbacks.

The Patriots likely will add him to the practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.
