Parts ways with Pats
New England released Ricci on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Ricci didn't log any action last season after having been cut by the Browns at the end of training camp, but he resurfaced in the league via a reserve/future contract with the Patriots in early February. Now, the 28-year-old tight end will have to look elsewhere in the NFL for another chance at a depth role.

The Browns have a stout defense anchored by pass rusher Myles Garrett, but QB Deshaun Watson has barely played in two years with the team, and Nick Chubb continues to recover from a devastating knee injury.
The Bryce Young-era in Carolina got off to a rocky start, to say the least. With better skill talent around him this season, he seems better positioned to fulfill his status as the No. 1 draft pick from 2023.
After struggling on the road in his NFL debut Bryce Young will look to regather himself in his first home game Monday.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Ricci was snapped up by the Browns after Carolina opted not to tender the restricted free agent. He's considered a block-first tight end and has experience lining up as a fullback. There's little chance he makes an impact as a receiver and will at best be the third on the TE depth chart behind David Njoku and Jordan Akins. The Browns also brought back Zaire Mitchell-Paden, who has yet to play in the NFL after signing as an undrafted free agent in 2022.
