The Jaguars waived Patterson on Monday.
Patterson had been competing with rookie sixth-rounder Cam Little for Jacksonville's starting kicking job, and it looks like Little came out ahead. Patterson, who turns 25 in September, has converted 59 of 67 field-goal attempts (88.1 percent) in his career, but just 19 of 25 tries (76.0 percent) from 40-plus yards.
