Matt Sokol: Let go by Buffalo
The Bills waived Sokol on Sunday.
It's the second time in two weeks that the Bills let go of Sokol, who played in all three of Buffalo's preseason games and finished with one catch (on two targets) for two yards while adding a solo tackle. Assuming he clears waivers, Sokol will explore his next options and pursue signing with a team in need of depth at tight end, likely on the practice squad.

Bills' Matt Sokol: Back with Buffalo
The Bills signed Sokol on Thursday.
Just two days after waiving Sokol, Buffalo saw fit to bring him back on board ahead of its second game of the preseason Sunday at Chicago. His spot on the team isn't set in stone moving forward though, and it would be surprising if any tight end other than Dalton Kincaid, Dawson Knox or Jackson Hawes remained on the Bills' active roster after final roster cuts later in August.

Matt Sokol: Cut by Buffalo

Matt Sokol: Back in Pittsburgh
Sokol signed with the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday.
Sokol was with the team during training camp and spent a week on their practice squad in September before being cut. He'll now have another opportunity with the franchise. The Michigan State product has previously appeared in six NFL contests, all with the Patriots between the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

Matt Sokol: Let go by Pittsburgh
The Steelers cut Sokol from the practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Sokol spent training camp with Pittsburgh and resurfaced on the team's practice squad mid-September, but he wasn't elevated Week 3. The veteran tight end will now have to search for a similar depth role elsewhere in the league.

Matt Sokol: Back in Pittsburgh
Sokol signed with the Steelers' practice squad Wednesday.
Sokol spent training camp in Pittsburgh but he was unable to earn a spot on the active roster. He'll now get another chance with the franchise, which will allow him the opportunity to work his way to the 53-man roster.

Matt Sokol: Cut by Pittsburgh
Sokol was waived by the Steelers on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
Sokol caught on with the Steelers in late July after spending 2023 with the Patriots. Sokol failed to register a catch across three preseason games, and assuming he clears waivers, he'll explore his next options.

Steelers' Matt Sokol: Headed to Pittsburgh
The Steelers signed Sokol to a contract Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
The move corresponds with Pittsburgh cutting wide receiver Marquez Callaway. Sokol was a member of the Patriots' practice squad in 2023 and appeared in the final three games of the regular season, playing 14 snaps on offense and six snaps on special teams. Sokol will look to crack the Steelers' 53-man roster as a depth tight end behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington.

Matt Sokol: Back to practice squad
Sokol reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Sokol played three snaps on offense in the Patriots' regular-season finale against the Jets on Sunday and did not record a stat. Sokol appeared in three games in 2023 and played 14 snaps on offense and six snaps on special teams over that span.

Patriots' Matt Sokol: Elevated to active roster
The Patriots elevated Sokol to the active roster Saturday.
The move corresponds with the Patriots placing Hunter Henry (knee) on IR. Sokol could be activated for New England's season finale against the Jets, with Pharaoh Brown listed as questionable with a ribs injury. Sokol has played two games this season and has not recorded a target over 11 offensive snaps.

Matt Sokol: Reverts to practice squad
The Patriots reverted Sokol to their practice squad Monday.
The tight end was elevated from the practice squad for each of New England's last two games, but he only ended up playing 11 combined offensive snaps and seeing no targets. It's possible that Sokol will be elevated again if starter Hunter Henry misses a third straight game with a knee injury in Week 18, but Mike Gesicki and Pharaoh Brown are the next two tight ends behind Henry on the depth chart.

Patriots' Matt Sokol: Elevated again for Week 17
The Patriots elevated Sokol from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Last week, Sokol was elevated for the first time this season and played 10 offensive snaps against Denver, finishing the contest without any stats. His elevation for Week 17 comes as starting tight end Hunter Henry is questionable with a knee injury and in danger of missing his second straight game. Even if Henry sits out again Sunday, Sokol isn't likely to log the necessary playing time to be a relevant fantasy option.

Matt Sokol: Reverts back to practice squad

Sokol was elevated to make his season debut during Sunday's loss to Denver, but he now returns to the practice squad. He played 10 of 58 offensive snaps Sunday with Hunter Henry (knee) out, behind Mike Gesicki's 38 snaps and Pharaoh Brown's 27.

Patriots' Matt Sokol: Elevated from practice squad
The Patriots elevated Sokol from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday night's game against the Broncos, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Matt Sokol: Added to practice squad
Sokol secured a spot on the Patriots' practice squad Wednesday.
Sokol bounced back and forth between New England's practice squad and active rosters in 2022, and it looks like he is heading toward a similar situation this year. The team only opted to carry two tight ends on the active roster, which left him on the outside looking in, but there will presumably be opportunities for him to be called up to the active roster as the season progresses.

Matt Sokol: Let go by New England
Sokol was cut by the Patriots on Tuesday.
Despite signing a reserve/future contract in January, Sokol was let go by the Patriots on Tuesday. The 27-year-old tight end has played in just five games in his career and has failed to record a reception. With the 2023 season approaching, Sokol will now look to carve out a role on a team's practice squad.
