Danny Etling’s time as a Patriot is apparently over for now.
Etling, who was not present for training camp practice on Tuesday, has been waived by the team, according to ESPN’s Field Yates. The move was somewhat expected, given Etling’s recent position change from backup quarterback to wide receiver.
The Patriots have waived QB/WR Danny Etling, per source. Etling begun working at WR this offseason to try to increase his roster chances.

Though he said all the right things about the transition, Etling was unable to find his footing among the likes of newcomer Maurice Harris, rookie N’Keal Harry, and undrafted free agent Jakobi Meyers.
