The Pats will take on the Dolphins for the second this season, looking to earn a series split down in Miami.
Malik Cunningham has been released by the Patriots, less than two weeks after they signed him to a three-year contract.
Chase Winovich has called it a career, retiring from the NFL at the age of 28.
Mike Gesicki is just days removed from his best moment with the Patriots, when he hauled in the game-winning touchdown from Mac Jones with a dozen seconds left on the clock in Sunday's upset win over the Bills.
For a long time, the player to rally the team after a victory in the Patriots' locker room has been Matthew Slater. The special teams captain still has that role, but Jabrill Peppers served as the warmup act on Sunday.

Buffalo's confidence was shattered after just one play -- a 34-yard screen pass to Rhamondre Stevenson that flipped the field and instantly allowed the Patriots to start hunting the touchdown instead of the field goal.
Hours after news broke that he had signed a contract extension in the offseason, Bill Belichick recorded his 300th regular-season win as a head coach on Sunday.
Unlike in previous weeks, the "Ups" outnumber the "Downs" from this one.
Let's be honest. Football often comes down to the quarterback and the Patriots got some remarkable contributions from Mac Jones.
The New England Patriots picked up their first home win of the season on Sunday, and they did so in dramatic fashion.
The Patriots weren't kidding when they said they'd adapt their backup quarterback plan based on their opponent each week, as Sunday's setup is completely different from last week's "plan" in Las Vegas.
