Patriots 53-man roster projection before training camp - Pats Pulpit

What the report says

Pats Pulpit published a pre-training camp projection for the New England Patriots’ 53-man roster, with the team scheduled to hold its first camp practice at 10 a.m. ET on Saturday. The outlet framed the exercise as an early forecast before on-field competition begins, noting that New England has 92 players on the roster and must eventually cut down to 53.

The projection keeps two quarterbacks: Drake Maye and Tommy DeVito, with seventh-round rookie Behren Morton viewed as a likely practice-squad candidate for now. At running back, Pats Pulpit has Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson and rookie Jam Miller making the team, while Reggie Gilliam is projected as the lone fullback after joining from Buffalo on a three-year, $12 million deal.

At tight end, the projected group includes Hunter Henry, rookie Eli Raridon and C.J. Dippre, while Julian Hill is listed as injured reserve after a June injury. The receiver room is described as one of the roster’s deeper areas, with A.J. Brown, Romeo Doubs, Kayshon Boutte, Kyle Williams, Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas projected to make the cut. Efton Chism III is identified as a close miss and possible next option if injuries or trades alter the group.

On the offensive line, Pats Pulpit projects Will Campbell, Morgan Moses, Caleb Lomu and James Hudson III at tackle, with Alijah Vera-Tucker, Jared Wilson, Mike Onwenu, Ben Brown, Andrew Rupcich and Caedan Wallace among the interior linemen. The projection matters because training camp and preseason performance can quickly reshape roster decisions, especially for rookies, depth players and those competing for practice-squad roles.
