New England Patriots wide receiver Jalen Hurd announced his retirement on Tuesday, exactly one week after signing with the team.
Hurd, 27, never played an NFL snap. He was selected by the 49ers in the third round (67th overall) of the 2019 draft, but injuries forced him to miss his first two seasons.
After beginning the 2021 campaign on injured reserve, Hurd was released by San Francisco on Nov. 11, 2021. He didn’t join another team until signing with New England on July 25.
The Patriots also claimed rookie receiver Thyrick Pitts off waivers from the Chicago Bears on Tuesday.
Pitts, 24, hauled in 57 receptions for 631 yards and 10 touchdowns last season at Delaware. He was released by the Bears on Monday.
