So you’re saying he has a chance?

Nelson Agholor sounds familiar. Did we recruit him?

I wasn't really watching but had the TV on while I was using #9 oil & cleaner on some stuff on the garage workbench.

Heard lil'Jordan's name called out by the broadcasters *multiple* times.

Does anyone know if his one year deal with New England is guaranteed or just a tryout kinda deal?

 

I was thinking about him when the Cowboys started having WR depth issues recently.

Youth, Versatility Key Patriots 53-Man Roster: Who Made Cut?

WIDE RECEIVER (5):

DeVante Parker, Tyquan Thornton, Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne, Nelson Agholor

IR: Kristian Wilkerson

OUT: Tre Nixon, Josh Hammond, Lil’Jordan Humphrey

Like Montgomery, Thornton is inevitably headed to injured reserve. Humphrey showed some potential during the preseason. Yet, he was arguably the surprise cut of the day. His 6-4, 225 pound frame and crisp method of running routes make him a solid depth receiver, as well as a potential hybrid receiver/‘move’ tight end. Despite showing some flashes of potential, Nixon becomes the victim of a numbers crunch at the position. At present, New England has rostered only four healthy wide receivers.

SPECIAL TEAMERS (7):

Matthew Slater, Brenden Schooler, DaMarcus Mitchell, Jake Bailey, Joe Cardona, Nick Folk, Cody Davis

OUT: Tristan Vizcaino, Justin Bethel

New England’s special teams stalwarts are roster locks, with Bailey, Cardona and Folk earning the specialist jobs, and Slater returning as captain. Both Schooler and Mitchell appear to be New England’s core special teamers of the future. Bethel was a surprise cut, as he is one of the team’s valued special teamers. Still, he becomes an unfortunate victim of the numbers crunch

and Schooler made the Pats.  Roster moves mystify. 

LJH a better receiver than everyone except Meyers and Parker. Maybe Bourne. Cowboys need to grab him for depth please. He doesn’t need to be a PS guy anymore.

There's a good chance he'll still make the 53-man roster in another week. With recent rule changes this initial cut to the 53-man is just as much about managing roster needs like placing players on IR and retaining players with multi-year contracts as it is about actually formulating a team's week one 53 man roster.

and why is the roster only 53? why not 60? So many talented guys don't make it and injuries hurt the team.

Less players to spread the salary cap around to.

Owners don’t want to increase the pie too much. Players don’t want smaller slices of the same pie.

The cap would be increased. Didn’t they do something similar for Covid?

He’s always been a baller. I still remember his performance against OU in 2018. He was a stud in that game. Wish we had him in 2019.

Watching that play had me thinking about this one. Maybe not exactly the same but whatever I'm posting it anyway.

he has 2 standard elevations left - what does that mean -- only for the Pats or league wide? After those 2 are exhausted, then what happens, perma-PS or cut completely?

I think it just requires that the team at that point sign the practice squad player to the 53 man roster for at least the rest of the season.
