The New England Patriots waived kicker Roberto Aguayo and long snapper Wes Farnsworth on Thursday and signed OL R.J. Prince, according to Mike Reiss.
Aguayo, 27, was selected with the No. 59 overall pick after the Buccaneers traded up to get him in 2016. He was in the second year of his four-year, $4.053 million contract when the Buccaneers elected to cut Aguayo loose in 2017.
The Bears later claimed Aguayo off of waivers but, unfortunately, waived him coming out of the preseason. From there, he had a brief stint with the Panthers before signing on with the Chargers for the 2018 season.
Aguayo signed on to the Patriots’ practice squad last year and returned to New England on a futures contract this past Jarnuary.
In 2016, Aguayo appeared in all 16 games for the Buccaneers and converted 22 of 31 field goal attempts (71 percent) to go along with 32 of 34 extra point tries and 52 touchbacks.
