Kindle Vildor: Let go by New England
Vildor was released by the Patriots on Tuesday.

Patriots' Kindle Vildor: Signed to New England's 53-man roster
The Patriots signed Vildor off the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.
Vildor opted to stay in New England on the practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He's now on the active roster to bolster the Patriots' depth in the secondary, as the team will be without four cornerbacks -- including starting outside corners Christian Gonzalez (shoulder) and Carlton Davis (neck) -- for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Patriots' Kindle Vildor: Signing with Patriots
Vildor is set to sign a one-year deal with the Patriots, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Vildor, who entered the NFL as a fifth-round pick by the Bears, recorded 16 tackles and a pick in 12 regular-season games with the Buccaneers in 2025. In joining the Patriots, the 28-year-old will reunite with head coach Mike Vrabel, who Vildor worked with in 2023 while both were with the Titans. In his latest locale, the 5-foot-11, 189-pounder will offer cornerback depth and special teams experience.

Buccaneers' Kindle Vildor: Gets one-year deal in Tampa Bay
Vildor signed a one-year contract with the Buccaneers on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Vildor started two of his 17 regular-season appearances with Detroit in 2024, and he now figures to handle a similar key depth role at cornerback for Tampa Bay. The 2020 fifth-round pick also has the ability to work as a reliable contributor on special teams.

Lions' Kindle Vildor: Two starts in 2024
Vildor finished the 2024 regular season with 16 tackles (10 solo) and three pass defenses across 17 games.
Vildor signed a one-year, $1.29 million contract with the Lions in April of 2024 after spending the 2023 campaign with Detroit, Tennessee and Chicago. The 2020 fifth-round pick was a consistent contributor on special teams, but he did start at outside corner for Week 12 and 13 and recorded six tackles (five solo) over that span. Vildor enters the 2025 offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and he'll look to join an organization that can offer him more snaps with the first-team defense.

Lions' Kindle Vildor: Starting Sunday
Vildor is starting in place of the injured Terrion Arnold (groin) against the Colts on Sunday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Arnold put in a limited practice Thursday and a full session Friday, but he's inactive Sunday anyway, giving Vildor the chance to start opposite Carlton Davis. Vildor has played on 68 defensive snaps in 10 games this season, recording five tackles (four solo) and a pass breakup, though he did start three games during Detroit's 2023 playoff run. The 2020 fifth-round pick of the Bears signed a one-year deal with the Lions in the offseason after spending time with Detroit, Tennessee and Philadelphia last season.
