4 things to know about new Patriots QB Nathan Rourke

The Patriots have reportedly added a new No. 3 quarterback to their roster.

Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Patriots claimed QB Nathan Rourke off waivers from the Jaguars on Monday, with the former Canadian Football League (CFL) standout expected to slot in behind Bailey Zappe and Mac Jones on New England’s depth chart.

New England’s QB depth has taken a hit in December. Rourke’s arrival in Foxborough came the same day QB Will Grier was claimed off waivers by the Chargers. Beyond Grier’s exit, Malik Cunningham left the Patriots on Dec. 12 after the Ravens signed him to their active roster.
