Marcellas Dial: Let go by New England
The Patriots waived Dial on Saturday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Dial played in all 17 games for the Patriots in 2024 before tearing his ACL in August of 2025. The cornerback was attempting to make a return to the franchise in 2026 but will not make the final cut. There is a good chance that if the 2024 sixth-rounder clears Monday's waivers, he will return to the Patriots' practice squad to begin the 2026 regular season.
