Patriots make small move.. Sign new DT to Practice Squad

[DaBruinz]

In a move that I'm sure many missed (or didn't care about), the Pats released Jerome Carvin (OG) and signed former LSU DT Jaquelin Roy. Roy is still pretty young as he just turned 24. He was a 5th round pick for the Vikings in 2023. He's 6'3 - between 297 & 305 - Wingspan of 78-80 inches and 10 in hands..

Add him to the PS mix...
DT/DE Trysten Hill
DE Brevin Allen
DE Jotham Russell (international Path Player)

So last year iirc we had Barmore/Guy/Godchaux/Wise/Eukale/White/Roberts/Pharms

Per the roster, Our defensive line (DT/DE) has lost Barmore, so we have White/Wise/Godchaux/Pharms/Eukale/E Johnson? ... I would like to see them add one more guy to the mix... bring down some of the snaps counts on the older guys just a smidge... 17 games is a long season, and one injury to a guy taking major snaps could really eff things up continuity/rotation wise...

Last year, Ekuale was on IR by the end of September. He missed 14 games. The Pats played 6 games without Pharms on the Pro-roster. Pharms got signed to the 53 in Mid-Octorber. William Bradley-King and Trysten Hill were both signed in mid-October.

Brevin Allen was released on 9/3 when they signed Caleb Jones.

yeah, understood, eukale only played 3 games... didn't realize Allen was gone, so thank you for that info...

you bring up all the late additions, and the injury to eukale which is basically making my point - add one more to the rotation so we arent caught short

Makes sense that the undersized nose tackle from Baton Rouge who went to LSU and then declared for the draft after his junior year and was drafted in the fifth round would have interest in being teammates with the formerly undersized nose tackle from a suburb of Baton Rouge who went to LSU and then declared for the draft after his junior year and was drafted in the fifth round.
