Patriots Practice Squad Adds Haskins and Jamison, Releases Ramirez

The Patriots added running back Hassan Haskins and cornerback D’Shawn Jamison to their practice squad Tuesday and released outside linebacker Jose Ramirez.

Patriots Practice Squad Adds Haskins and Jamison, Releases Ramirez - New England Patriots

The New England Patriots added running back Hassan Haskins and cornerback D’Shawn Jamison to their practice squad Tuesday and released outside linebacker Jose Ramirez.

The three transactions affect the practice squad, while the active roster still had an open spot, according to Pats Pulpit.

The move also comes with New England managing an expected absence at running back. Pats Pulpit reported that TreVeyon Henderson was expected to miss multiple weeks with a high ankle sprain.

Patriots Practice Squad Adds Haskins for Running Back Depth

Haskins previously spent two weeks on the Patriots’ practice squad in September before returning in Tuesday’s transaction. His addition gives New England another running back on the practice squad as the team monitors Henderson’s expected multiweek absence.

Pats Pulpit reported that Haskins has appeared in 44 NFL games. He has 76 career carries for 229 yards, 18 receptions for 119 yards and three touchdowns, according to the outlet.

Those totals provide the available statistical context for Haskins’ NFL experience, but his current roster designation is the Patriots’ practice squad. The transaction does not establish an active-roster promotion or a game-day assignment.

Pats Pulpit identified Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner in the running back depth context ahead of Haskins. The report’s context places Haskins within the team’s broader running back group while Henderson is expected to be sidelined.

D’Shawn Jamison Joins New England’s Practice Squad

Jamison joins Haskins as the second addition to New England’s practice squad. The move adds a cornerback to the group without placing Jamison on the Patriots’ active roster.

Pats Pulpit reported that Jamison has appeared in 18 NFL games. His reported totals include 10 tackles and one pass deflection.

Those numbers represent Jamison’s NFL production cited in the transaction coverage. The Patriots’ announcement, as described by the team’s move, places him on the practice squad rather than confirming an active-roster role.

Jamison’s addition addresses a different position from Haskins’ move. Haskins gives the practice squad another running back, while Jamison adds another cornerback to New England’s developmental roster.

Jose Ramirez Released From the Practice Squad

The Patriots released Ramirez as part of the same practice-squad adjustment. The transaction creates the roster space needed for the additions of Haskins and Jamison.

Ramirez recorded one solo tackle in two games with New England, Pats Pulpit reported. That is the Patriots-specific production cited in the coverage of his departure.

Ramirez’s release changes the practice-squad personnel at outside linebacker while the team adds players at running back and cornerback. The transaction does not by itself establish Ramirez’s next team or future roster status.

What the Moves Mean for the Patriots’ Roster

The Patriots’ Tuesday moves are limited to three practice-squad transactions: Haskins and Jamison joined the group, and Ramirez was released. The changes provide depth at running back and cornerback while removing one outside linebacker from the practice squad.

Pats Pulpit reported that the Patriots had a full practice squad and an open spot on the active roster in this roster context. That distinction matters because the additions do not announce a corresponding active-roster move.

Henderson’s expected absence gives the running back addition its clearest immediate context, but Haskins’ practice-squad status does not confirm a promotion or a game-day role. The same applies to Jamison at cornerback.

For now, the confirmed change is the composition of New England’s practice squad. Haskins and Jamison are the new additions, Ramirez is the released player, and the Patriots retain an open active-roster spot according to the roster context reported by Pats Pulpit.
