PATRIOTS NEWS 2025/2026 Patriots Roster Transaction Thread

[DaBruinz]

So, I am starting the 2024/2025 Roster Transaction thread because there have been a few transactions that affect this roster. I'm linking the 2024/2025 Roster Transaction thread.

NOTE: The 2023 IR rules allowed for 8 players to return from IR after missing 4 games. I will update if this changes.
EDIT: for the 2025/2026 season, the NFL is allowing for 2 players who are put on IR during TC to now return during the season.

The Practice Squad is now 16 Players.

Compensatory Picks:
UFAs the Pats signed:
Chukwuma Okorafor - 3/6 - Will NOT count against Comp Pick formula.
Jaylinn Hawkins - S - 3/21 - Will NOT count against Comp Pick Formula (VSB)

Antonio Gibson - RB - 3/13
Jacoby Brissett - QB - 3/13
Austin Hooper - TE - 3/13
Sione Takitaki - LB - 3/13
Armon Watts* - DT - 3/13
Nick Leverett - OG - 3/13 - Likely will not count against the Comp Pick Formula,
K.J. Osborn - WR - 3/17 -


UFAs the Pats lost:
Trent Brown -
Pharaoh Brown -
Mike Gesicki -
Myles Bryant -
Jalen Mills -
Mack Wilson -

* Armon Watts is not likely to count since he was IRed and then let go before the season started. (my opinion)
* I don't know how they'll handle Takitaki since he spent so long on the IR..

just a thought
=======
I have always included ERFA's on the roster. I think that Miguel used to the same (perhaps he still does). After all, they have no choices. IMO, not giving a roster a contract and a place on the 90-man roster is equivalent to cutting him.

I didn't include them because the team doesn't have to give them a tender. It happened last year. Same with RFAs.
