Patriots Add Three Players to PUP, NFI Lists Ahead of Camp

Patriots Update Injury Status for Key Players

The New England Patriots released an injury update on Tuesday, confirming the status of three roster members as training camp approaches. According to ESPN’s Mike Reiss, edge rusher Harold Landry III, tight end C.J. Dippre and running back Terrell Jennings have been placed on special lists. Landry and Dippre are on the active/physically unable to perform (PUP) list, while Jennings landed on the active/non‑football injury (NFI) list.

Harold Landry III’s Situation

Landry, a 30‑year‑old defensive lineman, has been battling a persistent knee problem that limited his playoff run last year. He elected for corrective surgery during the offseason and missed significant portions of the Patriots’ preparation program. Despite the setbacks, he finished the 2025 campaign as the team’s leading sack specialist with 8.5 takedowns. His PUP designation means he cannot attend practice until further notice, but New England could activate him at any point.

C.J. Dippre’s Status

C.J. Dippre signed as an undrafted free agent in 2025 and appeared in two regular‑season games for the Patriots. He is entering his second season at age 24 and remains in the system on the PUP list. The Patriots retain the flexibility to bring him into the lineup whenever they see fit during training camp. His status leaves fans speculating about his potential role on an offense that is already crowded at tight end.

Terrell Jennings’ NFI Listing

Terrell Jennings logged 73 rushing yards and a touchdown in 2025, providing depth behind the Patriots’ established backfield. He will now battle for reps with Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson for the starting job. Jennings’ NFI listing prevents him from participating in practice while the team evaluates his condition. The move suggests the club is being cautious about his health heading into the new season.

These roster moves illustrate New England’s careful approach to preparing for camp, ensuring veteran health and giving younger players time to recover. Fans can track the Patriots’ progress on official social channels for any activation news. The team’s depth will be a key factor as they look to improve on last season’s results.
