Veteran kicker Joey Slye was quickly picked up by the Patriots after being released by the Jaguars earlier this week. The Jaguars had drafted Cam Little in the sixth round, leading to Slye’s release. Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reported that Slye has agreed to terms on a deal with the Patriots.
New England already had 2023 fourth-round pick Chad Ryland on the roster, who had a solid rookie season. Ryland went 16-of-25 on field goals and 24-of-25 on extra points. Slye previously played for the Commanders and has also kicked for the 49ers, Texans, and Panthers. Throughout his career, Slye has made 121-of-147 field goals and 138-of-156 extra points.
