“@MikeReiss: As @FieldYates reported, Patriots have waived safety Don Jones today. Has been core special teamer. Unexpected move that sparks question why”

Siliga being activated?

@PatriotsHaven: The #Patriots waived DB/SPT Don Jones. Roster sits at 52, one open space.

Aiken has a concussion, so if he can't go Sunday they need to promote Hughlett from practice squad.  This may be why.  Although they could've waived Tymms too.

Happy Thanksgiving, Don!

Siliga being activated?

Reiss says that given that he hasn't participated in a practice yet, probably not.

 

[Steve Dillard]

Extra sixth lineman for Fleming for the game?

 

[Ed Hillel]

I think Vadertime probably has it. Aiken got a concussion on the Mosley cheapshot. lol boo hoo running up the score.

So I wonder if this is a "stay close, Don!" type deal.

You don't need a gunner when you don't plan to punt.

I think Vadertime probably has it. Aiken got a concussion on the Mosley cheapshot. lol boo hoo running up the score.

Then why not waive Aiken? Not likely anyone picks him up.
 
Or is that not possible with the whole waived/injured thing?

Still think this spot is for Siliga. Hughlett cut and Siliga not on the injury report.

Edit: Does Siliga have to be listed on the injury report yet? If not, I'm an idiot.

Claimed by Miami. On mobile but on Twitter.

Nice pick-up by the Dolphins. 

 

[Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt]

Disappointed and curious. He had shown up really well on S/T's and I never like it when a guy signs with a team we will be playing later in the season, let alone a division rival. Oh well. It is what it is.

Jones has 6 tackles and 3 holding penalties this year. Doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me. Someone will replace him, and who knows if there is a back-story here. Reiss tried to pry it out, but he got Belichick'd.
