Patriots release former 1st-round pick Jalen Reagor after his cryptic social media post

The Patriots released wide receiver Jalen Reagor from the practice squad on Tuesday, hours after Reagor published a cryptic social media post suggesting that he might not have been happy with his role in New England.

A former first-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles, Reagor signed a one-year, $1.3 million extension with the Patriots in March after spending the 2023 season with New England as a backup and a kick returner. He received $442,500 in guaranteed money.

Reagor did not make the 53-man roster in 2024 and re-signed with New England's practice squad in August.
