No Surprise Cuts as Club Moves Lewis, Vollmer to PUP
The Patriots made their expected cuts to bring the roster to the league mandated 75-man limit on Tuesday and unlike the Terrance Knighton release, there were no surprises.
Running back Dion Lewis who requires additional “clean-up” surgery on his knee and tackle Sebastian Vollmer were moved to the reserve/PUP list meaning that neither can return before Week 6 but not after Week 11. With Vollmer’s ailing hip issues, however, it is rumored that he won’t play at all in 2016 and being a free agent next season, would probably mean an end to his Patriots playing days.
