Projecting the Patriots’ 53-man roster ahead of cutdown day

The Patriots must trim their roster to 53 players by 4 p.m. on Tuesday. Here’s a projection of which players will make the cut.

Quarterbacks (3)

Jacoby Brissett, Drake Maye, Joe Milton III

Maye and Brissett are locks to make the roster and one of them will win the starting job. Milton’s size size and arm strength make him an interesting developmental prospect. Bailey Zappe has looked like the odd man out throughout most of training camp.

Running Backs (3)

Rhamondre Stevenson, Antonio Gibson, Kevin Harris

JaMycal Hasty was arguably the toughest cut in this projection, but carrying four running backs seems like a lot.
