Vollmer insurance

Cannon will play RT. Svitek is a backup OT. Why do we need to add an OT to the 53?

The Pats were woefully thin at O-line prior to Vollmer going down. They don't have a legitimate back-up at center other than Connolly. They don't have a legitimate back-up at guard or tackle other than Svitek. Connolly continues to play hurt. And I am fairly certain Mankins is playing hurt.

The Pats will need to add an OT to the roster and not just on the PS. It will have to be on the 53 man.

I expect (hope) that another OLman will be added during the bye. Bill can't possibly believe
that only 7 OLmen wil be good enough to last the rest of the season.
