As part of the New England Patriots’ roster moves on cutdown weekend, the team also let one of its depth offensive linemen go: Brian Schwenke was released to help the Patriots get under the 53-man roster limit. The veteran, who did not have to go through the waiver wire, then hit the open market but remained unsigned – until today when he returned to New England, according to ESPN Boston’s Mike Reiss:
Veteran C/G Brian Schwenke re-signed with the Patriots today, per a source. He wore No. 63 at practice. Schwenke was with the team in training camp.
