Per NFLTradeRumors.co — “NFL Transactions: Wednesday 8/12”: this NFL Transactions roundup lists multiple roster moves around the league and highlights two reported New England Patriots moves: a running back signing and a waived/injured designation. All items below are attributed to NFLTradeRumors.co and should be verified with official team or league sources before being treated as confirmed roster status.
NFL Transactions — quick roundup (source: NFLTradeRumors.co)
This summary is based on the NFLTradeRumors.co article titled “NFL Transactions: Wednesday 8/12.” The report compiles day-of transactional activity across the NFL; key headlines include the New England Patriots reportedly signing running back Hassan Haskins and placing running back Myles Montgomery on a waived/injured designation. The piece also aggregates moves from the San Francisco 49ers, Buffalo Bills and other clubs that shape AFC East and leaguewide roster pictures.
Patriots moves from the report
Per the NFL Transactions listing, the Patriots’ reported moves from that roundup are:
- Hassan Haskins — signed. The source lists Haskins as a reported addition to the New England roster.
- Myles Montgomery — waived/injured. The report notes an injured designation for Montgomery; injury-related roster notes should be treated as reported until the team or league confirms.
Two-line takeaway
The Patriots reportedly added depth at running back with Hassan Haskins and moved another back to a waived/injured designation the same day. Treat the injury designation as an unconfirmed claim until the Patriots or the NFL publish an official transaction entry.

What this could mean for the Patriots roster
The reported signing of Hassan Haskins should be read as a camp- and preseason-depth move unless the team states otherwise. If the signing is confirmed, it gives the Patriots an additional option during training camp and preseason work, potentially impacting practice reps and special-teams looks. That said, teams frequently add and subtract running backs during this period, and a signing does not guarantee a long-term roster spot.
The waived/injured designation for Myles Montgomery is a procedural status with several possible outcomes: if a waived/injured player clears waivers, he may revert to injured reserve, reach an injury settlement and be released, or be claimed by another team (in which case the claiming club assumes his current status). Because of those pathways, injury and settlement reports should be flagged as provisional until an official team or NFL transaction entry is published.
From a Patriots perspective, cautious language is warranted: reported additions can mean temporary camp depth rather than final roster placement. Patriots staff (head coach Mike Vrabel and his staff) will make final decisions during roster cutdowns; fans should watch official team announcements for confirmation of active roster, practice-squad, or injured-reserve designations.
Other notable NFL Transactions from the roundup
Beyond New England, the NFLTradeRumors.co roundup lists several other items that matter for league context and AFC East matchups:
- San Francisco 49ers — the report lists signings and waivers, including names such as RB Zamir White and CB Eli Apple, and notes an injured designation for DE K.J. Henry. Injury tags should be verified with team posts.
- Buffalo Bills — the Bills’ activity included waiving DT Kody Huisman and signing DB Anthony Kendall, which we included above as relevant AFC East context.
- Baltimore Ravens — the roundup references QB-related moves and an injured-reserve entry for QB Skylar Thompson in the report; confirm such placements with club announcements.
- The report also calls out releases from injured reserve with settlements for players on other clubs; those items are sensitive and should be treated as reported until official confirmations are posted.
