Here's Reiss' rundown of a tricky roster decision looming (probably last this season):
Weighing pros and cons to Patriots' upcoming call with QB Jacoby Brissett
Deadline is tomorrow 4PM.
Id prefer he stays on IR and loses a month of practice. He can still be a part of post-season experience. He even travelled with the team before “designation“ period (remember @Bills)
Reiss suggests Richards to IR or Coleman Waived. That would actually be the other best case scenario. Pats still do have 12 DB which is now really excessive. They could lose Coleman on waivers but he might not be in their future plans anyway.
The least used member of the 53 is Waddle but Id be surprised if they pushed their luck at such a vital position, esp. since Fleming has lots of TE duties.
Id really hate if they tried anything with Foster or Hamilton at this point. Like Reiss notes “there is a high likelihood they could lose him because this is the time of year when teams often are more willing to make a waiver claim with a young promising prospect with 2017 in mind“ - and Id hate this to happen with any of them.
The worst case scenario of course would be the news that Danny is put on IR.
