The Patriots went into Sunday's game with only 52 players on their active roster, which meant they had an open roster spot.
According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, that spot will be filled by quarterback Cody Kessler.
The veteran was released Oct. 15, but he stayed in the area. The Patriots are back to having three quarterbacks on their roster.
"Cody's done a nice job for us," Bill Belichick said earlier in the month. "He's really smart. He's come in here, he's learned. He's out there calling plays, signaling receivers, making adjustments like he's been here longer than the two weeks or whatever it is. He's picked things up very quickly and has a good rapport with all of the players and is willing to do whatever we've asked him to do. He works extremely hard."
If the Patriots activate rookie wide out N'Keal Harry prior to Sunday's game, another roster move will need to be made.
