Patriots release veteran punter Bryce Baringer
Bryce Baringer is being released by the Patriots after a preseason injury cost him his job.
The New England Patriots have decided to release veteran punter Bryce Baringer, according to the NFL Network. Baringer, who served as the team's punter for the past three seasons, was set to start this season until he suffered an injury during preseason. As a result, the team signed veteran punter Mitch Wishnowsky, who will now take over the full-time punter position. Baringer, a sixth-round draft pick by the Patriots in 2023, consistently performed well over his tenure, starting at least 50 yards in his first 26 games.
