Judgment day is on the horizon for the New England Patriots.
The Patriots must finalize their initial 53-man roster by next Tuesday afternoon. They also must drop from 85 players to 80 by this Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET, one day before they welcome the New York Giants to Foxboro, Mass., for a set of joint practices.
Ahead of those cutdown deadlines, here’s a look at our latest 53-man roster projection:
Quarterbacks (2)
In: Cam Newton, Mac Jones
Out: Brian Hoyer
PUP: Jarrett Stidham
Newton has maintained his grip on the starting job to this point.
