Patriots Cut Two Players from Roster
Miles Battle’s Journey
Miles Battle, a 25-year-old cornerback, began his NFL career as an undrafted free agent with the Kansas City Chiefs on May 5, 2024. Standing at 6 feet 3 inches and weighing 197 pounds, he was released after the Chiefs’ training camp.
On October 15, 2024, Battle joined the New England Patriots’ practice squad. He was promoted to the 53-man roster on January 4, 2025, making his NFL debut during the season finale against the Buffalo Bills on January 5. In that game, he recorded two tackles and defended three passes.
Battle had a brief stint with the Patriots after training camp this summer, returning to the practice squad before being elevated for a matchup against the Tennessee Titans on October 19, where he participated on special teams. He officially made the 53-man roster again on November 26. Throughout his time with New England, Battle appeared in five games, tallying three total tackles.
Brenden Jaimes’ Career Overview
Brenden Jaimes, 26, also faced roster changes. He signed with the Patriots’ practice squad on September 1, 2025. The 6-foot-5, 300-pound offensive lineman was elevated for games against the Carolina Panthers on September 28 and the New York Giants on December 1, seeing action in special teams during these matches.
Originally, Jaimes was a fifth-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Chargers in the 2021 NFL Draft, coming from Nebraska. He spent time with the Tennessee Titans as an unrestricted free agent but was released on August 26, 2025. Jaimes accumulated experience by playing in 48 regular-season games, including three starts at center during the 2023 season, and he also participated in two postseason games.
Conclusion
These recent roster decisions reflect the Patriots’ ongoing adjustments as they prepare for the current season. Both Battle and Jaimes have shown potential but will now seek opportunities elsewhere in the league.
