Wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson among three players waived by Patriots

Offseason roster movement arrived Wednesday for the New England Patriots with the departures of three.

The organization waived wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson, cornerback Tae Hayes and kicker Quinn Nordin, according to the NFL transaction wire.

Wilkerson, 26, had resided on injured reserve due to a concussion since last August’s 53-man roster deadline. The 2020 undrafted record-setter from Southeast Missouri State signed to New England’s practice squad in September of his rookie season after spending training camp with the Tennessee Titans. He served as an elevation for four games through 2021, catching four passes for 42 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets.
