Yeah, Gemara missed most or all of the week's practices due to an injury.
Bissigner missed the last public practice on Wednesday.
Both weren't dressed last night.

Pats moves
By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
The Patriots have released rookie free agent linebacker Kyle Bissinger and second-year cornerback Gemara Williams.
Both players are recovering from injuries. Bissinger hyperextended his knee in practice, while Williams aggravated his hamstring. Williams, who returned two kickoffs in the preseason opener (32-yard average), is remaining in the Foxborough area with the hope he can be re-signed when healthy.
"Gemara really likes the organization," said agent John Pace, who represents both players. "Both have to heal, but I think they'll both land with a team when that happens."

From the agent's comments, it sounds like they weren't waived/injured as was the case with Hairston. So don't look for them reverting to IR.
Williams was actually waived/injured last year though, and reverted to IR.
