Patriots re-sign Rosevelt Colvin
Today the New England Patriots re-signed LB Rosevelt Colvin.
"I didn't necessarily have something to prove," he said Wednesday after signing with the Patriots. "It wasn't like I was scratching walls trying to get back in the game. (But) it's definitely a benefit and a plus to have an opportunity."With Mike Vrabel the only healthy OLB, Colvin should get up to speed quickly.
"We got depleted at outside linebacker," coach Bill Belichick said. "Rosie has been here before. He certainly knows what we are doing and knows the defense. There is a much smaller learning curve with him."The 31-year old LB has 354 career tackles and 52.5 career sacks. He last played in week 12 of the 2007 season with the Patriots.
