Malcolm Butler's attempted comeback with the Patriots ended Tuesday as the team placed the veteran cornerback on season-ending injured reserve.
It’s never easy for a player to return to football after sitting out a year. Butler struggled at times in camp this summer. It seemed like he was behind outside cornerbacks Jalen Mills, Jonathan Jones and Terrance Mitchell. On top of that, cornerback Shaun Wade has had a strong summer and the Pats have young slot cornerbacks Myles Bryant and Marcus Jones. There’s also rookie Jack Jones, who adds even more to the depth chart. Butler was potentially on the roster bubble.
The Patriots also placed cornerback Joejuan Williams on the injured reserve and released backup punter Jake Julian on Tuesday.
