Patriots Sign Defensive Back Kyle Arrington to Practice Squad

The Patriots signed former Buccaneers defensive back Kyle Arrington to the practice squad on Tuesday. In order to make room for Arrington on the eight-man practice squad, the Patriots released cornerback DeAngelo Willingham.

Arrington was selected by Philadelphia as a rookie free agent in 2007 out of Hofstra. He spent most of his rookie year on the Tampa Bay practice squad and was signed to the 53-man roster prior to the season opener against Dallas this season. He made his NFL debut against Dallas in Week 1 before being waived by the Buccaneers on Sept. 14.
