Overview
- The Patriots signed Hassan Haskins and placed undrafted rookie Myles Montgomery on waivers with an injury designation, a move that cleared waivers and sent Montgomery to the team’s injured reserve.
- Hours later the club reunited with JaMycal Hasty and then announced that Terrell Jennings was placed on season‑ending injured reserve, leaving the RB room without the player who had been the early RB3 frontrunner.
- With Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson locked into the top two roles, Haskins and Hasty join Lan Larison and Jam Miller as the main contenders for the remaining roster spots.
- Both veteran additions were targeted for their special‑teams experience and familiarity with New England’s staff, a decisive factor for a late‑camp RB who must also help on kickoff and coverage units.
- The moves were driven by preseason timing and roster rules that forced quick follow‑ups after signings pushed the team above camp limits, so look for these veterans to get game reps in the preseason to make their case for the 53‑man roster.
