Andrew Jelks
30-Year-Old
Free Agent
Calls it a career
The Patriots placed Jelks on the reserve/retired list Friday, Doug Kyed of NESN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jelks was picked up by the Patriots as an undrafted rookie last season, but he never saw the field as he continued to try and recover from a pair of torn ACL's from his college days at Vanderbilt. He hasn't played since 2014, although he'd been working with the Patriots' second-team offensive line during spring workouts. His retirement shouldn't impact New England's depth at offensive line this season.
