BOSTON -- Marquan McCall's run with the New England Patriots is over after just one day.

The second-year defensive tackle failed his physical with the Patriots, according to Jordan Schultz. According to the report, McCall had a knee issue show up during his physical.

The Patriots had claimed McCall a day earlier off waivers from Carolina, releasing wide receiver Tre Nixon to clear a spot on the 90-man roster. Listed at 6-foot-3 and 379 pounds, McCall played collegiately at Kentucky before signing with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent last year.
