The New England Patriots have elevated linebacker Ochaun Mathis from the practice squad for their upcoming game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.
Mathis, 25, has been brought up a second time this season. He previously was moved up for the Patriots’ loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 5, playing 11 combined snaps as a member of New England’s special teams operation.
A sixth-round draft pick out of Nebraska in the 2023 NFL Draft, Mathis appeared in eight games as a rookie with the Los Angeles Rams. However, the team decided to release him ahead of roster cutdowns in late August.
