Two of the notable names on this list include D'Angelo Ross and James Ferentz.
Ross played pretty well late in the season. He saw snaps on defense and special teams over the last three games of the regular season and the AFC Wild Card playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Ferentz provided valuable depth on the offensive line during the regular season and even made two starts in Week 5 against the Houston Texans and Week 6 versus the Dallas Cowboys.
All 12 of these players could still return to the Patriots before next season.
