In addition to cutting quarterback Ryan Lindley and signing cornerback Justin Coleman on Friday, the Patriots announced nine other moves, reducing their roster to 66 players. Here’s the list of players who were waived by the team, according to a team release:
- RB Tony Creecy
- WR Zach D’Orazio
- WR DaVaris Daniels
- OL Ryan Groy
- OL Caylin Hauptmann
- OL Chris Martin
- LB James Morris
- DL A.J. Pataiali’i
- DL Casey Walker
New England also released tight end Jake Bequette from the club’s injured reserve list, making him a free agent.
The Patriots will move running back LeGarrette Blount to the reserve/suspended list for Week 1 as part of their cutdown to 53 players, so the team will have to make 12 more roster moves by today’s deadline.
I thought Morris was a favorite dark horse to make roster but maybe he is worth more on the practice squad.oh well.
