Talented return specialist. Apparently, he rejected an offer from the Steelers to join the Patshttps://www.patspulpit.com/2017/9/4/16251394/new-england-patriots-release-defensive-tackle-darius-kilgo-from-the-practice-squad
Patriots making some early-morning moves on practice squad. They informed DT Darius Kilgo of his release.
Patriots signed former @UHCougarFB Steelers wide receiver DeMarcus Ayers to practice squad
I think the move that hasn't been reported in this thread is signing Angelo Blackson, a defensive lineman that the Jaguars drafted in the fourth round in 2015.That still leaves one open spot, right? Still waiting for a developmental QB, maybe, or is it getting a little late in the cycle for that?
Thanks. Pats can move someone out if need be, of course, but it doesn't look like they've left a candle burning for any specific PS QBI think the move that hasn't been reported in this thread is signing Angelo Blackson, a defensive lineman that the Jaguars drafted in the fourth round in 2015.
They've never really carried a practice squad QB, have they? The last one I can remember is that highlander guy.Thanks. Pats can move someone out if need be, of course, but it doesn't look like they've left a candle burning for any specific PS QB
I love it that we still remember him as The Highlander.
This is something I wholeheartedly endorse.Wouldn't be stunned to see Cody Hollister called up to the 53, would like to see Braverman signed to ps.
I was kind of surprised they didn't do this last week. That tells me they expect Amendola back soon, which would help.Wouldn't be stunned to see Cody Hollister called up to the 53, would like to see Braverman signed to ps.

NFL Rumors: Patriots Sign ‘Spitting Image Of Wes Welker’ To Practice Squad
P.S. Also wore 83 at Iowa and can return punts:
You ever come across former Sea Wolf Will Tye when he was in college? Any inside scoop? Looks like a legitimate NFL player statistically but I've never watched him playPer Reiss, the Pats have signed Will Tye to the practice squad. He's an athletic TE who could be looked to replace Allen at some point or could simply be there for the rest of the week because he was a Jet until a couple weeks ago. They could use another pass catching TE option.
Great kid, athletic player. Hope he sticks.You ever come across former Sea Wolf Will Tye when he was in college? Any inside scoop? Looks like a legitimate NFL player statistically but I've never watched him play
https://nesn.com/2017/10/bills-tried-and-failed-to-pry-patriots-cornerback-from-practice-squad/The Buffalo Bills tried to sign Lewis off of the Patriots’ practice squad to their 53-man roster earlier this season. Lewis rejected the proposal when the Patriots offered him a rookie minimum salary of $465,000, NESN.com confirmed Mike Reiss of ESPN’s initial report.
Per the article it was kickoff coverage and kickoff return.What ST units has Hogan been on besides the "hands" group for onside kickoffs?
That was just last week - Hogan played six ST snaps Sunday but only three all season coming into the game (guessing hands team on onside kicks). Not sure if he was replacing Roberts or Geneo Grissom.Per the article it was kickoff coverage and kickoff return.
