Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Patriots reportedly signed Cunningham to a deal with $200,000 guaranteed, the most the team has ever spent on an undrafted player. During his college career at Louisville, Cunningham (who New England lists at 6-0, 188 pounds) played quarterback, but with Mac Jones, Bailey Zappe and Trace McSorley already in the team's signal-caller mix, the rookie's versatility could be his ticket to securing a roster spot this coming season. With that in mind, Cunningham saw reps at wideout during the team's OTAs. Read Past Outlooks
Joins New England's practice squad
Cunningham is signing with New England's practice squad, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Cunningham's joined by Bailey Zappe on the practice squad, as Mac Jones is the only quarterback that the Patriots kept on the initial 53-man roster. Zappe will almost certainly be brought back onto the roster come the regular season, but it remains to be seen if the same is true for Cunningham, who was used as a wildcat quarterback and wide receiver in training camp.
