The New England Patriots are preparing for their Week 6 battle with the Houston Texans at Gillette Stadium on Sunday, but they'll be doing so with a new addition to the 53-man roster.

On Saturday, New England activated linebacker Sione Takitaki from reserve/PUP after he missed all of training camp and the first five games of the 2024 regular season due to a knee injury.

The Patriots signed Takitaki to a two-year, $6.65 million deal this offseason after he spent the first seasons of his career with the Cleveland Browns.
