Two releases put Patriots QB room back to where it started

And just like that, the New England Patriots’ quarterback room is back to where it started.

The team announced they had released backup quarterbacks Ian Book and Matt Corral in their continued go at musical chairs with the position.

Corral initially signed to the main roster after Bailey Zappe’s surprising release from the team. Zappe was then signed back to the practice squad and elevated to the main roster with Corral going on the exempt/left squad list. The Patriots then went out and signed Book as their second practice squad quarterback next to rookie Malik Cunningham.

Now, the position is back to where it was at training camp (minus Trace McSorley). Mac Jones and Zappe are the two quarterback options on the main roster, while Cunningham is the young, developing prospect behind the scenes.

Perhaps the revolving door position has finally been settled for the Patriots.
