Texans' Marte Mapu: Traded to Houston
The Patriots are trading Mapu to the Texans, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
New England informed Mapu on Tuesday of plans to cut him, but it appears Houston stepped in before such a transaction could be completed. Per Alexander, the trade involves a swap of late-round picks. Mapu totaled 25 tackles (18 solo), five passes defensed (including one interception) and one forced fumble across 17 regular-season appearances in 2025, playing 120 snaps on defense and 254 snaps on special teams.

He had 25 tackles (18 solo), five passes defensed (including one interception) and one forced fumble.

Patriots' Marte Mapu: Seven tackles against Bolts
Mapu finished Saturday's 40-7 loss to the Chargers with seven tackles (six solo).
Mapu got the start at free safety Saturday due to the absence of Jabrill Peppers (hamstring), and the former finished fifth on the Patriots in tackles. Mapu has logged seven combined tackles in back-to-back games, and on the season he's accumulated 44 tackles (22 solo), including 0.5 sacks, six pass defenses (including one interception) and three forced fumbles across nine regular-season games. Mapu could start in the Patriots' regular-season finale against the Bills next Sunday if Peppers is unable to play.
