The New England Patriots have elevated two players from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday night's game divisional against the Miami Dolphins.
Linebacker Calvin Munson and wide receiver Jalen Reagor have been added to the 53-man roster, the team announced on Saturday.
With these practice squad elevations it might mean good things for the offensive line, who have been hit with injuries this week. While Trent Brown and rookie Sidy Sow have concussions, they are still being listed as questionable ahead of Sunday. And with that, they is hope that Cole Strange and Mike Onwenu will play.
Munson was also elevated in the Patriots' season opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, playing on special teams. He was released during cutdown day, but was re-signed to the practice squad shortly after.
As for Reagor, he is set to make his debut with the Patriots after being signed off waivers at the end of August.
The receiver began his career with the Eagles, being drafted in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, but only remained with the team for two seasons. During his time in Philadelphia, he finished with 64 catches for 695 yards and three touchdowns.
He was then traded to the Vikings in exchange for a 2023 seventh-round pick and a 2024 conditional fourth-round pick. There he had eight catches for 104 yards and one touchdown during the 2022 season.
Reagor and Munson will take the field with the Patriots at 8:25 p.m. on Sunday against the Dolphins.
