The New England Patriots have had a number of their former players sign with new teams in recent months, and that trend continues.

On Monday, wide receiver Jalen Reagor signed with the Los Angeles Chargers practice squad, defending back Jalen Mills signed with the New York Jets practice squad and offensive tackle Calvin Anderson signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

New England released Reagor last week after he shared a post on social media insinuating that he was better than his role on the team's practice squad. He appeared in 11 games in 2023, recording seven receptions for 138 yards.

The Patriots placed Anderson on injured reserve during roster cuts and agreed to an injury settlement with him not long after. He appeared in five games with the team in 2023 after battling malaria that offseason.

Mills appeared in 43 games over three seasons, recording 123 tackles (three for a loss), 13 passes defensed, two interceptions, two quarterback hits, one forced fumble and a fumble recovery. His contract expired at the end of last season.
