Patriots’ 53-man roster by jersey number ahead of Week 5

A chance to change the narrative hangs in the balance for the struggling New England Patriots on Sunday, when playing host to the visiting New Orleans Saints.

There haven’t been many positive headlines for the Patriots, following their 38-3 blowout loss at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys. Yet, that could change if they fend off the Saints and prove the 2023 season isn’t already in the dumps.

The team obviously doesn’t feel that way considering they traded with the Los Angeles Chargers to acquire former All-Pro cornerback J.C. Jackson on Wednesday. It was a masterstroke move to bring back a former Patriots player knowledgeable and talented enough to compete right away on defense.

Other moves could come at some point with injured cornerback Christian Gonzalez and linebacker Matthew Judon both still on the active roster.

Here’s the Patriots’ 53-man roster heading into Sunday’s Week 5 matchup against the Saints:
