Patriots Reduce Roster To 53

September 1, 2021 by Pro Football Rumors

The Patriots made headlines earlier today when they cut quarterback Cam Newton, a move that made rookie Mac Jones the starter. The team has since reduced their roster to 53 players, and we’ve detailed each of the moves (including those previously reported) below:

Released

  • DL Montravius Adams
  • DL Tashawn Bower
  • DB Adrian Colbert
  • OL Korey Cunningham
  • OL James Ferentz
  • K Nick Folk
  • QB Brian Hoyer
  • TE Matt LaCosse
  • QB Cam Newton
  • OL Alex Redmond
  • DL Akeem Spence
  • DB Dee Virgin

Waived

  • DB Myles Bryant
  • CB Michael Jackson
  • DL Bill Murray
  • WR Tre Nixon
  • DB D’Angelo Ross
  • OL Will Sherman
  • DL Nick Thurman
  • WR Kristian Wilkerson
  • WR Isaiah Zuber

Placed on Reserve/PUP list

  • DL Byron Cowart
  • CB Stephon Gilmore
  • LB Terez Hall
  • QB Jarrett Stidham

Placed on Reserve/NFI list

  • S Joshuah Bledsoe

The Patriots veterans are most notable, but the organization also waived a pair of 2021 draft picks. Sherman was a sixth-round pick out of Colorado who appeared in 30 games during his collegiate career. Nixon was a seventh-round pick; the wideout split his collegiate career between Ole Miss and Central Florida, earning All-AAC honors in 2019.
