Jesse Luketa: Let go by New England
The Patriots waived Luketa on Saturday, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
Luketa signed with the Patriots in March. The linebacker spent three years with the Cardinals, playing in 31 regular-season games between 2022 and 2024 before spending much of the 2025 season with the Rams' practice squad. Luketa will now be placed on waivers through Monday due to Sunday's cutdown day. If the 27-year-old remains unclaimed, he will become a free agent able to sign with any organization's 53-man roster or practice squad.

Patriots' Jesse Luketa: Signs with New England
Luketa signed with the Patriots on Thursday.
The 27-year-old linebacker did not appear in a regular-season game last year. Luketa signed with the Rams' practice squad in November and spent the rest of the season on it. The seventh-round pick of the Cardinals in 2022 recorded 35 tackles (19 solo) across his first three seasons with his original team.

Jesse Luketa: Working out with Cowboys
The Cowboys are bringing in Luketa (thigh) for a workout ahead of the team's training camp starting Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Luketa sustained a season-ending thigh injury in mid-December last year, finishing his third season with the Cardinals on IR. The 2022 seventh-round pick appeared in 31 games for Arizona, and he tallied a career-high 21 tackles and 3.0 sacks across 10 games last year. Luketa would likely vie for a role as a reserve linebacker and core special-teamer if he winds up joining the Cowboys this training camp.

Cardinals' Jesse Luketa: Shifts to IR
Luketa (thigh) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Luketa had already been ruled out for the Cardinals' Week 16 matchup in Carolina, but he's since shifted to IR and will miss the remainder of the regular season. The third-year pro from Penn State recorded 21 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and forced one fumble over 10 games this season. Arizona is currently on the outside looking in at the playoffs, but Luketa could return later this season if the Cardinals make a playoff run.

Cardinals' Jesse Luketa: Out against Panthers
Luketa (thigh) is out for Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Luketa will miss his first full game since Week 4 after going down with a thigh injury early in the first half of last weekend's win versus the Patriots. The third-year linebacker's inactive status should provide more opportunities for Owen Pappoe and Xavier Thomas. Luketa's next chance to see the field will be at Los Angeles in Week 17.

Cardinals' Jesse Luketa: Exits with injury Sunday
Luketa sustained a thigh injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Luketa logged one tackle before sustaining this injury during the first half. The 25-year-old has been one of the Cardinals' primary reserve linebackers this season, totaling 20 tackles and 3.0 sacks across nine appearances. With starting off-ball linebacker Mack Wilson (conussion) also forced out, it's likely that Owen Pappoe and/or Xavier Thomas will have to step up into bigger roles for the time being.

Cardinals' Jesse Luketa: Done for rest of Sunday
Luketa (thigh) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against the Patriots.
Luketa suffered the thigh injury in the first half and he'll be forced to miss the remainder of Sunday's contest as a result. The linebacker finished his day with one tackle and in his absence, Owen Pappoe and Xavier Thomas will continue to operate in more significant roles versus New England.
