Not sure where you heard that Scott Patterson is playing Jeff, but Angus Macfadyen will be reprising his role as Jeff, not Patterson. Bloody Disgusting announced that this was going to be happy way back in April: http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/8586

Part of an interview from director of Saw IV talking about Scott:

Q: Can you tell us anything about the new characters?
BOUSMAN: There are two new characters which I don't think has been announced yet but I'll drop this one. There's two characters, Perez and Strong, who are our two people that we're following on this one a lot. With Jigsaw we've always had cops somewhere in it and again, this issue of cops, I didn't want to play them as cops. I didn't want to do that. We've seen that story. So I tried to take a different spin on that and the cops [angle] is secondary to who they are. We've actually focused on these quirky characters. We have SCOTT PATTERSON in it and Scott Patterson is from the "Gilmore Girls" and I really knew nothing about him prior to my first meeting with him. The guy is ****ing insane and great.

Well Scott Patterson, the first day he shows up, he says, 'I'm going to do something a little different here.' And I'm like, 'Alright.' We yell 'action' and all of a sudden he started improvising and it was gold. It was like the best stuff I'd ever seen and he's insane. It really works well for his character considering we haven't seen him in a Saw film before. There's a whole new life to this one which is exciting.
