LAS VEGAS -- In hopes of sparking their struggling offense, the New England Patriots signed dynamic receiver/quarterback Malik Cunningham to their 53-man roster on Saturday.
Cunningham, who finished his career at Louisville ranked fourth in school history with 9,664 passing yards and third with 3,184 rushing yards, had spent the first five weeks of the season on the team's practice squad.
He is expected to be active as the Patriots (1-4) visit the Raiders (2-3) on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium (4:05 p.m. ET, CBS).
The Patriots rank last in the NFL in points per game and the 6-foot-1, 198-pound Cunningham could be utilized in a run-based package to complement starting quarterback Mac Jones.
