The Patriots are set to add a new punter to the roster in the near future.
Bryce Baringer left Saturday's preseason game against the Eagles after punting twice and the team had to use backup quarterback Behren Morton as their punter for the rest of the game.
Head coach Mike Vrabel said after the game that Baringer wasn't feeling great as an explanation for the change. Vrabel did not go into details about the nature of the issue at a Monday press conference, but said "it's serious enough" that the team will likely be signing a punter.
Baringer has been New England's punter for the last three seasons. He has a net average of 41 yards per kick over his career.
