The New England Patriots waived third-string quarterback Will Grier on Saturday, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

That leaves Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe on the depth chart, with coach Bill Belichick yet to announce a starter for Sunday's road game against the New York Giants after he had benched Jones late in the team's most recent game - a Week 10 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Frankfurt, Germany.

The Indianapolis Colts have released Shaquille Leonard.

With a base salary of $15.6 million, Leonard is due $6.1 million for the rest of the year. Leonard's play this season has dropped after being a Pro Bowler in his first four seasons after entering the league in 2018.
