Patriots trade target TE Michael Roberts also fails his Packers physical, gets waived

May as well go ahead and throw this out there now: generally speaking, on this site your author (that’s me!) is chronically incapable of taking anyone or anything seriously. However, one of my only core beliefs as Julian Edelman and myself keep making our early 30’s look good is that you never, ever make fun of another man’s sports injury. Superstitions aside, it takes an extreme troglodyte to joke around about someone’s body failing them in grotesque and extremely painful ways, so the jokes here will be kept to an absolute minimum.

That being said, whatever’s making TE Michael Roberts keep failing physicals appears to be a legit concern, because the Green Bay Packers just decided it was serious enough to waive him with an injury designation.
