Patriots sign S Antuan Edwards

June 6, 2005

FOXBORO, Massachusetts - The defending champion New England Patriots added depth to their secondary Monday, signing unrestricted free agent safety Antuan Edwards.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Edwards started a career-high 13 games in a 2004 season split between the Miami Dolphins and St. Louis Rams. He recorded 65 tackles and 10 passes defensed, both career bests.

The 28-year-old Edwards spent the first five years of his career with the Green Bay Packers after being the 25th overall pick in 1999 out of Clemson. In his rookie season with the Packers, he recorded four interceptions and the only touchdown of his NFL career.

I was being sarcastic obviously Patsfantx- but Green Bay secondary was not very good - so I would not get too excited about this on face value

I know you were being sarcastic faba.

Look, Edwards will not be a starter (unless Harrison or Wilson goes down with an injury) and was just signed for additional depth.

I also think he was a punt returner as well.

No way he gets caught short two years in a row. [-X

It looks like the Pats have created a shortage of DB's in the World League and the Arena league.

You'd think that, but only three of those guys (Ventrone, Charlton, Poteat) are "has no business making the roster" type guys.

The other 14 are all legit NFL depth at the least.

and we're talking about the Patriots because?

Because your pathetic team got their a$$ kicked by the Pats 5 out of the last 6 times they played.

You would think that any move made by the Pats would be of interest to a Jets fan.

Same old BS? :shock::shock:

Did I post that PennyBoy has a noodle-arm or that Hermy is an idiot?

Nope, I posted a statement of fact (Jets have lost 5 out of the last 6 games to the Pats) so how do you consider that the "same old BS"?

Man 13, you're getting pretty sensitive in your old age. :wink:
