Patriots Waive Undrafted Duo Jennings and Scott Jr. Before Roster Deadline
26 Aug
Summary
- Patriots waived RB Terrell Jennings and TE Gee Scott Jr. ahead of NFL roster deadline
- Jennings, 24, had been sidelined for back-to-back preseason games
- Scott, 24, signed as part of Patriots' 2025 undrafted class in May
In a roster shakeup ahead of the NFL's deadline, the New England Patriots have waived two undrafted players - running back Terrell Jennings and tight end Gee Scott Jr.
Jennings, a 24-year-old Florida A&M product, had been sidelined for back-to-back preseason games. Last August, he led the team in rushing, and was later elevated from the practice squad to the 53-man roster in December. Jennings made three appearances for the Patriots' backfield by the end of the regular season, logging 33 yards from scrimmage across 13 touches.
Meanwhile, 24-year-old Gee Scott Jr. signed with the Patriots in May as part of the organization's 2025 undrafted class. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound tight end saw 48 offensive snaps during his rookie preseason with New England, after converting from the wide receiver room at Ohio State.
The Patriots' roster moves come just days before the league's final roster deadline on Tuesday. Teams around the NFL will have until 4 p.m. ET to trim their rosters to 53 players, with practice squad formations to follow on Wednesday.
