The Jalen Reagor Era in New England ended in unceremonious fashion, as the team cut him following a rather controversial post on his Instagram story. Famously selected one pick ahead of superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson<\/a>, Reagor flamed out with the Philadelphia Eagles and spent 2023 bouncing on and off the New England Patriots roster. Reagor spent the first two weeks of 2024 on New England’s practice squad, but that came to a crashing halt following an ill-advised social media post.<\/p>\n

Reagor recently posted the “Rich Car Bad House<\/a>” meme to his story, seemingly implying that he was the fancy car and the house was the New England Patriots. Head coach Jerod Mayo apparently didn’t like this, as Reagor took down the post and the Patriots cut him shortly thereafter. Doug Kyed of The Boston Herald<\/em> <\/a>reported the Jalen Reagor release “wasn’t the direct result of the social media post,” but it’s fair to say it played a role. Reagor never justified his first-round draft capital, but the TCU product could land a job with the Kansas City Chiefs or Los Angeles Chargers.<\/p>\n
