Patriots claim two players and move two others to injured reserve
Summary

The New England Patriots adjusted their active roster on Monday, one day after finalizing their initial 53-man group. The team claimed tight end Cameron Latu and linebacker Darius Muasau off waivers. Concurrently, the Patriots released offensive lineman Ben Brown and linebacker K.J. Britt. Linebacker Khalil Jacobs and punter Bryce Baringer were placed on injured reserve. The roster currently sits two players below the league-mandated limit, and further additions via the waiver wire are expected. These moves follow a summer that saw the team evaluate depth at tight end and along the offensive line.
