Deneric Prince - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Reverts to IR with New England Prince (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve with the Patriots on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Prince signed with the Patriots on Sunday, but he quickly suffered an undisclosed injury at practice, which is set to sideline him for the entirety of the 2025 season while on IR. The running back would be eligible to return to action this year if he reaches an injury settlement with New England.

Waived with injury designation The Patriots waived Prince (undisclosed) with an injury designation Tuesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Prince didn't play in the Patriots' preseason opener against the Commanders last Friday and will now head to injured reserve once he clears waivers. Prince was buzzed about in Chiefs camp two summers ago but failed to make the team and spent the previous two seasons on Kansas City's practice squad.

Lands in New England The Patriots signed Prince to a contract Sunday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Prince's addition to the Patriots' roster adds depth to the backfield after Lan Larison (knee) was placed on injured reserve. Prince spent the entire 2024 season on the Dolphins' practice squad and last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Chiefs, when he played 15 snaps on special teams across two games.

Joins Miami's practice squad The Dolphins signed Prince to the practice squad Friday.

Impact Prince built some momentum during the preseason with Kansas City, and he now resurfaces in one of the only landing spots around the league as intriguing as his previous offense. Coach Mike McDaniel's rushing scheme seems like one Prince could thrive in, if given an opportunity, but his path to game-day activation is crowded. The Dolphins have reason to be confident in both Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson as capable contributors if either of Raheem Mostert or De'Von Achane are forced to miss any time.

Let go by Chiefs The Chiefs have waived Prince, according to Jesse Newell of the Kansas City Star.

Impact With Prince not slated to be included on the Chiefs' initial 53-man roster, FB/RB Carson Steele appears to have secured a depth role behind Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire. Meanwhile, Prince could land on the team's practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Let go by KC Kansas City has waived Prince, according to Jesse Newell of the Kansas City Star.

Impact With Prince not slated to be included on the team's initial 53-man roster, Carson Steele appears to have secured a depth role in the backfield behind Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire. Prince could still land on Kansas City's practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Minor contributions in loss Prince rushed three times for minus-1 yard and brought in his only target for three yards in the Chiefs' 34-21 preseason loss to the Bears on Thursday night.

Impact Prince saw both Carson Steele and Keaontay Ingram -- the latter his primary competition for a reserve running back role -- fill larger roles in the preseason finale. Prince appeared in two regular-season games as an undrafted rookie in 2023, but it remains to be seen if he'll be deemed worthy of a roster spot again this season, especially after such a lackluster finish to the exhibition slate.

Impact Prince was the third running back to record a touch after Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire had finished their work for the night. The second-year Tulsa product currently slots in as the No. 3 running back on the preseason depth chart, but he'll have to hold off the more experienced Keaontay Ingram for that role over the remaining two preseason games.

Rotates in ahead of Edwards-Helaire Prince was the second RB to take a carry during Tuesday's run period, behind only Isiah Pacheco, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

Impact Prince spent most of 2023 on the Chiefs' practice squad after going undrafted in the spring, with his two regular-season appearances yielding 15 snaps on special teams. He has another shot to earn a backup role, as the Chiefs didn't do much to reinforce their backfield behind Pacheco this offseason, merely re-signing Clyde Edwards-Helaire and bringing in more undrafted rookies. Prince probably isn't ahead of Edwards-Helaire on the depth chart but might be viewed as a better fit fit for early downs and/or short-yardage situations if Pacheco were to miss time with an injury.
