The Patriots placed Okorafor (undisclosed) on the exempt/left squad list Saturday.
Mike Reiss of ESPN.com notes that the move gives the Patriots a roster exemption, and he believes that Okorafor won't play for the Patriots again this season. Okorafor started at left tackle in Week 1 against the Bengals, but he was benched after 12 snaps and was replaced by Vederian Lowe.
