The New England Patriots waived Nathan Rourke on Monday, trimming the number of quarterbacks on their roster to four.
The Patriots drafted Drake Maye with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and also have veteran Jacoby Brissett, Bailey Zappe and 2024 sixth-round selection Joe Milton in the QB room.
A 25-year-old Canadian, Rourke was claimed by New England off waivers from the Jacksonville Jaguars in December and re-signed with the Pats in March.
Rourke has not appeared in an NFL regular season game. He played in college at the University of Ohio (2017-19) and appeared in 23 games for the Canadian Football League’s BC Lions from 2021-22, throwing for 4,103 yards with 28 touchdowns and 15 interceptions.
