Patriots Sign Ex-Broncos Starter & 2 Former Bears

Mike Purcell

Just one day after announcing they had signed former Denver Broncos defensive tackle Mike Purcell on August 1, the New England Patriots tweaked their roster further, announcing they had also added offensive tackle Kellen Diesch and safety A.J. Thomas.

In order to make room on the roster for the newest additions, the Pats released tackle Tyrone Wheatley Jr. and running back Deshaun Fenwick.

Wheatley appeared in two games for the Partiots last season, playing just five snaps, all of which came on special teams.

Fenwick signed with New England as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon State in May of 2024. He was competing for depth among a running backs room that now consists of Rhamondre Stevenson, Antonio Gibson, JaMycal Hasty, Terrell Jennings and Kevin Harris.
