Veteran wide receiver Jordan Matthews was placed on IR by the Patriots and then released with an injury settlement Wednesday.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Wide receiver Jordan Matthews, who injured his right hamstring in Sunday's fourth practice of training camp, was released by the New England Patriots on Wednesday.


Because he was injured, the Patriots first placed Matthews on injured reserve and then reached an injury settlement with the receiver that allows him to play again later this season if healthy.


Matthews had signed a one-year, $1 million contract with $300,000 guaranteed ($170,000 pure guarantee, $130,000 workout bonus) with the Patriots in April, and was vying for a roster spot at a position headlined by Julian Edelman and Chris Hogan. With Edelman set to serve a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's PED policy to open the season, some viewed that as possibly increasing Matthews' chances of sticking.
