The New York Giants claimed quarterback Nathan Rourke off waivers on Tuesday, according to NFL insider Tom Pelissero. The 25-year-old began his professional career with the BC Lions of the CFL before getting an opportunity with the Jacksonville Jaguars in January of 2023. He spent roughly a year with the team before being released and claimed by the Patriots. New England cut ties with him on Monday, and he has already found a new home. The Ohio University product has not thrown a regular season pass, and he's likely going to serve as a training camp arm this offseason with the potential to compete with Tommy Devito for the QB3 job behind Daniel Jones and Drew Lock.
The New England Patriots informed quarterback Nathan Rourke that he is being waived on Monday, according to sources. The move thins the team's quarterback room to four -- veteran Jacoby Brissett, rookie third overall pick Drake Maye, Bailey Zappe and rookie Joe Milton III. The move shouldn't come as a surprise after the Patriots selected two quarterbacks in this year's NFL draft. The 25-year-old Rourke has never appeared in an NFL game, although he did make 11 starts in 2021 and 2022 with the BC Lions of the Canadian Football League. Rourke will now look for another opportunity elsewhere as a depth option at the position with another NFL team.
The New England Patriots re-signed former Canadian Football League standout quarterback Nathan Rourke to an undisclosed deal on Friday, according to a source. The Patriots claimed Rourke off waivers from the Jacksonville Jaguars in December. New England is expected to move on from Mac Jones under center this offseason, sign a veteran in free agency and draft a signal-caller, potentially with the third overall pick in the first round. The 25-year-old Rourke will merely be providing depth at the position and is unlikely to see any real playing time in 2024. The British Columbia native has not played a single snap in an NFL game.
