Patriots Release OT Conor McDermott From IR With Settlement

The New England Patriots officially released OT Conor McDermott from injured reserve with a settlement on Friday. 

Conor McDermott

McDermott, 30, is a former sixth-round pick of the Patriots back in 2017. He was later waived and claimed by the Bills before being cut loose in 2019. 

The Jets claimed McDermott off of waivers. He was in the final year of his four-year contract worth $2,535,028 including a signing bonus of $135,028 when the Jets signed him to a one-year extension for the 2021 season. 

However, New York waived him last year and re-signed him to the practice squad. McDermott later joined the Patriots midseason and returned to New England on a new contract this past March. 

In 2022, McDermott appeared in 13 games for the Jets and Patriots, making six starts for New England.
