Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images The New England Patriots are waiving wide receiver K.J. Osborn, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.
Osborn, 27, has played in seven games (four starts) and has seven receptions on 18 targets for 57 yards and one touchdown. He has participated in 53 percent (232) of the offensive snaps. He has not played since the Patriots' 19-3 victory at Chicago on Nov. 10.
The Patriots signed Osborn as a free agent in March after he spent four seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, who selected him in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Osborn has 165 career receptions for 1,902 yards and 16 TDs in 66 regular-season games (34 starts).
New England also is expected to sign rookie kicker John Parker Romo to the practice squad, NFL Network reported on Tuesday. Romo, 27, played in four games this season for the Vikings, making 11 of 12 field-goal attempts with a long of 55 yards, and seven of eight extra-point attempts.
The Patriots' starting kicker is veteran Joey Slye.
