Patriots Activate Fullback Reggie Gilliam from Injured Reserve

The New England Patriots activated fullback Reggie Gilliam off injured reserve to the active 53-man roster. Gilliam had been sidelined since Week 4 with knee and ankle injuries, leaving New England without a traditional fullback on the roster. His return allows the offense to reintroduce specialized fullback packages while providing an immediate boost to special teams coverage units, where Gilliam played 41% of kicking game snaps through the first four weeks of the season.
