The New England Patriots have made their weekly roster transactions in preparation for their Week 12 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.
New England can promote up to two practice squad players to the active roster for game day as either a standard elevation or COVID-19 replacement. Those player revert to the practice squad (without hitting waivers) after the game. The Patriots also tend to add their players to injured reserve on Saturday night, if necessary. That means the team occasionally signs players to either the 53-man roster or the practice squad.
So here’s a look at each roster move they announced on Saturday night. New England made seven different roster moves, with two practice squad promotions, one player coming off IR and four players going on IR.
