Patriots Reach 53-Man Max
The Patriots made a massive amount of cuts on Saturday to reach the 53-man limit. Most of the cuts were expected, but there were a few surprises in the bunch.
Released:
- OL Jamil Douglas
- OL James Ferentz
- RB D.J. Foster
- LB Jonathan Freeny
- DL Geneo Grissom
- DL Woodrow Hamilton
- OL Ted Karras
- DL Darius Kilgo
- TE James O’Shaughnessy
- WR Tony Washington
Waived:
- LB Trevor Bates
- FB Glenn Gronkowski
- WR Devin Lucien
- WR K.J. Maye
- DL Josh Augusta
- DL Michael Bart
- WR Austin Carr
- TE Sam Cotton
- RB LeShun Daniels
- LB Brooks Ellis
- WR Cody Hollister
- DB David Jones
- DB D.J. Killings
- OL Jason King
- DB Will Likely
- OL Conor McDermott
- DB Kenny Moore II
- OL Max Rich
- DB Jason Thompson
- DB Damarius Travis
- LB Nick Usher
Karras was widely projected to be the team’s top backup on the interior line, so his release comes as a surprise. The 24-year-old was drafted by the Pats in the sixth round of the 2016 draft and played in all 16 regular season games last year. He also appeared in all three playoff games as a reserve.
O’Shaughnessy, acquired via trade in April, was competing for the third tight end spot. The 6-foot-4, 245-pounder has played in 23 NFL games with six starts.
