The New England Patriots parted ways with 10 players earlier today, but have to make more cuts to get under the NFL’s 53-man roster mandate. The latest two players to therefore get released are tight end Paul Quessenberry (via NESN’s Doug Kyed) and defensive tackle Nick Thurman (via the Boston Herald’s Karen Guregian). With the two no longer on the active team, the Patriots now have 65 players remaining for the time being.
TE Paul Quessenberry
The Patriots brought Quessenberry abord in late August after he had spent the last four years with the United States Marines.
