Terrell Jennings and Truman Jones reverted to the New England Patriots\u2019 practice squad on Monday after serving as standard elevations against the New Orleans Saints.<\/p>\n
Sunday\u2019s 25-19 win at the Caesars Superdome brought the 2025 debuts for the running back and the outside linebacker.<\/p>\n
Jennings, 24, played seven snaps on special teams during kickoff and punt returns. Active alongside starter Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie TreVeyon Henderson, his call-up followed veteran running back Antonio Gibson\u2019s official move to injured reserve with a torn ACL.<\/p>\n
A 2024 undrafted free agent out of Florida A&M, Jennings signed with the Patriots after attending rookie minicamp on a tryout basis. From there, he led the team in rushing during his rookie preseason before clearing waivers. The 6-foot, 217-pound back went from the practice squad to the 53-man roster by campaign\u2019s end. Appearing in three games, his rookie year included 33 yards across 13 carries.<\/p>\n
Jones, 25, saw 11 snaps on special teams for an edge group that entered Sunday without Keion White and Anfernee Jennings due to elbow and ankle injuries. The offseason award winner was part of the return and coverage units for kickoffs.<\/p>\n
Last December, Jones signed to the practice squad in Foxborough. A promotion to the active roster followed as the calendar reached 2025. The former Harvard captain made his NFL debut in the January finale, logging two tackles between defense and the kicking game. He originally entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2023 and earned a Super Bowl LVIII ring while on the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 practice squad.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not supposed to have favorites, but I would say that Truman\u2019s close to the list if I had one,\u201d head coach Mike Vrabel said last week. \u201cHe\u2019s an extremely hard worker. I would say that every time we have a show player of the week on the [defense] or special teams, I would say that he\u2019s probably been one of those two, if not both, throughout the year. He\u2019s done a nice job. He prepares as a starter each and every week.\u201d<\/p>\n
A pair of elevations remain for both members of the practice squad, while a spot on the 53-man roster also remains open.<\/p>\n
