Ngakoue won't play in Sunday's game against Chicago after being claimed off waivers by the Patriots on Friday, Mike Kadlick of CLNSMedia.com reports. It would have been quite a feat for Ngakoue to have become familiar enough with New England's defensive playbook to be ready to suit up just two days after joining the team, and the Patriots are opting to hold out their new acquisition Sunday rather than pressing him into action. Ngakoue thus seems likely to make his New England debut Nov. 17 against the Rams.

The Patriots claimed Ngakoue off waivers Friday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports. Ngakoue was signed to the Ravens' active roster Oct. 14 after being signed to the practice squad in late September. He was let go by Baltimore on Thursday, and because that occurred after the Nov. 5 trade deadline, Ngakoue was placed on waivers rather than released, which New England took advantage of Friday. Ngakoue played a rotational role at defensive end with the Ravens, and the 2016 third-round pick will likely do the same with the Patriots behind starters Daniel Ekuale (abdomen) and Keion White.

Baltimore released Ngakoue on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Baltimore signed Ngakoue to its active roster from its practice squad ahead of Week 7, but now he's on his way back out in Week 10. With that said, the Ravens have signaled interest in bringing him back to their practice squad if he's not claimed from waivers.

The Ravens signed Ngakoue to their 53-man roster Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The outside linebacker signed with the team's practice squad in September and saw limited action in the last two games. Ngakoue, who recorded four sacks in 13 games for the Bears in 2023, will likely serve as a rotational pass rusher now that he's taking a permanent spot on Baltimore's roster.

The Ravens signed Ngakoue to their practice squad Monday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Ngakoue's time on the practice squad will likely be limited, as the 29-year-old is expected to be added to Baltimore's active roster once he ramps up his workload and gets reacquainted with the team's defense. The Maryland product was most recently with the Bears, recording 22 total tackles and four sacks across 11 games in 2023.
