Patriots cut four more players to make room for waiver wire additions
Even after the 53-man roster was intact, the New England Patriots reportedly made several moves on Wednesday.
According to the Boston Herald's Doug Kyed, via Andrew Callahan, the Patriots released wide receiver Jalen Reagor, cornerback Isaiah Bolden, offensive lineman Michael Jordan and defensive tackle Trysten Hill.
Reagor likely wouldn't see the field much as a receiver, but his incredible talent as a returner on special teams was believed to be enough to help him stick on the roster. The same goes for Bolden, who stuck around mostly for his special teams abilities.
Hill being released is also a bit of a surprise considering the question marks along the defensive front. The team is still missing starting defensive tackle Christian Barmore, who is still recovering after being diagnosed with blood clots.
The #Patriots released WR Jalen Reagor, OL Michael Jordan, DT Trysten Hill and CB Isaiah Bolden today to make room for their 4 waiver claims, per @DougKyed.

The four players awarded to the Patriots in waiver claims were linebacker Curtis Jacobs, offensive tackle Demontrey Jacobs, defensive tackle Eric Johnson and offensive tackle Zachary Thomas.
Just because the 53-man roster is intact doesn't mean the Patriots are going to stop making moves. The roster tinkering is an ongoing process that stretches throughout the entire season.
