Out for Week 11 Patrick (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

With the Saints on a bye Week 12, Patrick's next chance at suiting up will be Week 13 against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 1. Erik McCoy (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game but could be activated off IR and start at center, per Rod Walker of The New Orleans Advocate.
