A few weeks ago, the Pittsburgh Steelers parted ways with safety Ross Ventrone in order to make room on their 53-man roster for wide receiver Martavis Bryant after he had served his four-game suspension. On Wednesday, Ross Ventrone was signed to the practice squad of the New England Patriots.
The Wednesday move now means that Ross Ventrone will be reunited with his older brother Raymond Ventrone, who is the Patriots special-teams assistant coach.
Additionally, Ross Ventrone is no stranger to the Patriots organization as he bounced between their 53 man roster and practice squad during his first three years in the league after being originally signed by them in 2010 as an undrafted free agent.
