I realize he has played for them in the past, so it's not really shocking. What I don't understand though, is why? He hasn't played a game in how long? Plus his age has to be creeping up on him.

Not sure how much of a factor he will be for them.

I saw that he caught a 63 yard TD last night. Strange, I thought he was only capable of running end arounds? :34853_brickwall:

Yup, made a nice grab and a big score. Just when I thought the Texans MAY gain some steam, the door was slammed shut.

Well, Donte Stallworth was brought-back by the New England Patriots because: 1) Julian Edelman got hurt. 2) Bill Belichick likes to replace injured players with free agents that he has worked with the past. 3) Although Deion Branch was, once again, available, he doesn't have any speed left in his tank. At least Stallworth does and can kinda replace Edelman's role in the offense.

And now he is on IR and the Pats will turn again to Branch, apparently.

When you have an offense like the Patriots you can really just rotate receivers like they do. They have such a solid system it made Matt Cassel look like an amazing qb. Patriots somehow always have enough cap room and what seems like 2 first round picks every year while trying out every dead weight option who might put up solid numbers once.

Patriots have such a solid organization but that's just BB, Brady, and that amazing O-line.
