After being waived by the New England Patriots in February, Tae Hayes has made his way back in May.
The organization announced the re-signing of the cornerback on Tuesday, deepening a depth chart that saw rookies Christian Gonzalez, Ameer Speed and Isaiah Bolden arrive in the 2023 NFL draft.
Hayes, 25, entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Appalachian State in 2019. Following stints with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers and the 2022 USFL champion Birmingham Stallions, he joined New England’s practice squad last December.
