New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel has the final say on roster moves, based on the team releasing linebacker Sione Takitaki
Takitaki filled a rotational role for New England in 2024, in which he tallied 21 tackles (seven solo) across 11 regular-season appearances. His release frees up roughly $2.8 million against the cap for the Patriots.
The Patriots' release of Sione Takitaki offers a clue as to who's really in charge of personnel decisions in New England, says Phil Perry.
