NFL teams were forced to trim their rosters down to 53 players on Saturday, leaving a lot of talented men without jobs. However, before they could become free agents, they had to make it through the waiver wire.
Teams around the league had the opportunity to claim any of the more than 800 players who were released from all 32 franchises this weekend. According to the NFL’s transaction wire, the New England Patriots did not claim anyone.
This news comes as a bit of a surprise, as many feel that the team lacks talent and depth at key positions.
