Anfernee Jennings was given an opportunity with Harold Landry out, potentially salvaging his future with the team.
The New England Patriots have built up some solid depth on the edge as the season has gone on. Harold Landry and K'Lavon Chaisson have put together strong campaigns, while rookie Elijah Ponder has notched three sacks, and fifth-round pick Bradyn Swinson has seen an increase in snaps over the past few weeks.
One player that looked sure to be omitted from the 53-man roster up until the end of August was Anfernee Jennings.
