The Patriots are filling out their practice squad after Wednesday\u2019s waiver claim period has ended.<\/p>\n
The Patriots are signing tight ends CJ Dippre and Gee Scott Jr. to their practice squad, per sources.<\/p>\n
OLB Bradyn Swinson, CB Kobee Minor, DT David Olajiga, C Alec Lindstrom, WR Jeremiah Webb, WR John Jiles, DT Jahvaree Ritzie, CB Miles Battle, G Mehki Butler, RB Terrell Jennings, LB Cam Riley, CB Brandon Crossley and OLB Truman Jones also were spotted out at Wednesday\u2019s practice.<\/p>\n
All 15 players spent training camp with the Patriots.<\/p>\n
Swinson was Tuesday\u2019s biggest surprise cut from the Patriots. He was selected in the fifth-round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of LSU. The only other rookie selected by the Patriots who was cut Tuesday was Minor, the final pick in the draft.<\/p>\n
The Patriots can have 17 players on their practice squad if one of them is an international player pathway program player. Olajiga has an international exemption, so two spots remain.<\/p>\n
One spot should be filled by wide receiver Javon Baker, who was cut Wednesday, if he clears waivers on Thursday.<\/p>\n
