Not long ago, we were reporting that the Detroit Lions had traded Michael Roberts to the New England Patriots for a late-round draft pick.

Then, news broke that the trade was reversed and Roberts was returned to the Lions after he failed a physical with the Patriots. He was then waived by the Lions.
A few days later, Roberts was claimed off waivers by the Green Bay Packers.
On Wednesday, the Packers reportedly waived Roberts after he failed yet another physical.
Source: the Packers have waived TE Michael Roberts due to a failed physical. He was recently acquired on waivers. Second time he’s failed a physical in a week.

Roberts had told reporters this offseason that he was full recovered from his surgery but that does not seem to be the case.
We certainly wish Michael Roberts the best of luck.
