Patriots offensive guard Michael Jordan has re-signed to the practice squad, the team announced Friday.
Jordan started 11 of the Patriots’ 12 games so far this season at left guard, but received his release Tuesday after struggling mightily in last weekend’s loss at Miami. The 6-foot-6, 315-pounder has one game-day elevation remaining, meaning he could still play for the team this season. Jordan’s departure from the active roster indicates the Patriots will prioritize more playing time for fourth-round rookie Layden Robinson and second-year offensive lineman Sidy Sow over their last five games.
Sow played right tackle last Sunday in place of starter Demontrey Jacobs, who got benched in the fourth quarter. It’s unknown how the Patriots will configure their starting offensive line this weekend against the Colts.
To make room for Jordan, the Patriots released offensive tackle Jalen McKenzie from their practice squad.
