Matt LaCosse and Tashawn Bower reverted to the New England Patriots’ practice squad on Monday after serving as standard elevations versus the Cleveland Browns, according to the NFL transaction wire.
The 45-7 win at Gillette Stadium marked the first elevation for the tight end and the final elevation for the outside linebacker.
LaCosse, 29, opted out of last season due to Covid-19 concerns. With starter Jonnu Smith questionable and inactive because of a shoulder injury, he saw nine snaps on offense and one snap on special teams in his return. The 2015 undrafted free agent out of Illinois made stops with the New York Giants, New York Jets and Denver Broncos prior to signing a two-year pact with the Patriots.
