Uche, 26, resided among the inactives 90 minutes prior to Sunday's kickoff against the New York Jets at Gillette Stadium. He had played a season-low 11 downs the week prior.
Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo stated, 'It was just a healthy scratch, and we also have to put the best team out there that we think gives us the best chance to win.'
Selected in the second round of the 2020 class, Uche's time in the AFC East spanned 76 tackles and 20.5 sacks, setting a career high with 11.5 sacks in 2022.
As part of the trade, the Kansas City Chiefs will send a sixth-round pick in the 2026 draft to the New England Patriots.
