• Cole Fotheringham: Time up in New England

  Rotowire Aug 22, 2025

  The Patriots waived Fotheringham on Friday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports. Fotheringham went undrafted out of Utah back in 2022, spent his rookie year on Las Vegas' practice squad, then suited up for two regular-season games with the Raiders in 2023. Since then, he's logged stints with the Texans, Broncos and Patriots, but he didn't get a chance to suit up for regular-season action with any of those clubs and won't make New England's initial 53-man roster.

• Patriots' Cole Fotheringham: Signs with New England

  Rotowire Jul 30, 2025

  The Patriots signed Fotheringham (undisclosed) to a contract Wednesday. Fotheringham was let go with an injury settlement by the Broncos in early June due to an undisclosed injury. He appears to be past the issue, and the Utah product will look to earn a spot on the Patriots' 53-man roster as a backup tight end. Fotheringham last saw regular-season action in 2023 with the Raiders, when he played 32 snaps (21 on offense, 11 on special teams) across two games while catching one pass for six yards.

  Fotheringham (undisclosed) was waived from injured reserve with an injury settlement by the Broncos last Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The tight end spent time on the Raiders' and Texans' practice squads in 2024 and last caught an NFL pass in 2023. For his career, Fotheringham has one catch for six yards on 21 offensive snaps.

• Raiders' Cole Fotheringham: Active for OTAs

  Rotowire May 23, 2024

  Fotheringham (hamstring) has been participating in the Raiders' OTA sessions. Fotheringham suffered a hamstring injury in the team's Week 17 matchup with the Colts before signing a reserve/future contract with the Raiders in January. He now looks to be a full go ahead of the 2024 campaign after he appeared in two contests with Las Vegas last season, reeling in his only target for six yards while playing 21 offensive snaps. The 26-year-old will attempt to carve out a reserve tight end role this season behind Michael Mayer and Brock Bowers.

• Cole Fotheringham: Returns to practice squad

  Rotowire Dec 26, 2023

  The Raiders reverted Fotheringham to their practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log. With primary tight end Michael Mayer (toe) unable to play Monday against Kansas City, Las Vegas elevated Fotheringham from the practice squad for the first time in his career. In his initial taste of NFL regular-season action, the Utah product played 19 offensive snaps and eight special-teams snaps, catching his only target for a six-yard gain. Whether Fotheringham gets elevated again this week likely depends on Mayer's ability (or inability) to suit up.
