Webb signed a reserve/future contract with the Patriots on Tuesday. Webb joined the Patriots' practice squad in late August and was elevated to the active roster ahead of the wild-card win over the Chargers, though he didn't see the field. The 24-year-old wideout has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 36 receptions for 649 yards and five touchdowns during his final season at South Alabama in 2024.
The Patriots reverted Webb to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Webb was elevated ahead of Sunday's wild-card win over the Chargers but was ultimately a healthy scratch for that contest. The elevation was his first of the campaign. He was likely elevated as insurance in case Kayshon Boutte (who was dealing with a hamstring injury) couldn't suit up, which didn't end up being the case. It would almost certainly take an injury in the Patriots' receiving corps for Webb to be elevated again for the divisional round next Sunday.
The Patriots elevated Webb to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's wild-card matchup versus the Chargers. Webb joined the team's practice squad back in August, but this marks just the first time that he's been elevated for a game. The rookie undrafted free agent will now have a chance to make his NFL debut should he suit up against the Chargers.
