Burial on the Patriots’ table, security of veterans obtained his request for a change of decor.
Marcus Epps asked to be released on Tuesday, a source told Masslive, and the Patriots forced. The 29 -year -old was stuck behind Craig Woodson, Jabrill Peppers, Jaylinn Hawkins and Kyle Dugger on the depth board, so his potential playing time seemed clear.
EPPS had been a full -time starter in his last season with Les Eagles (2022) and his first year in Las Vegas (2023) before tearing his ACL last year with the Raiders. He had trouble climbing the list of New England this spring, and as such, wanted to find a greater opportunity elsewhere.
The veteran signed a one -year and $ 2 million contract in Foxborough as a free agent, but only $ 500,000 of this was guaranteed. By releasing EPPS now, patriots will save $ 965,000 in the ceiling space while putting this $ 500,000 cap on their books.
