With rookie Chad Ryland continuing to struggle in his first season against NFL competition, the Patriots are reportedly bringing another kicker into the fold.
According to Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald, the Patriots are signing kicker Matthew Wright to their practice squad, with the 27-year-old veteran spotted in New England’s locker room on Wednesday.
Wright’s arrival comes just a day after New England reportedly hosted five other kickers for workouts — and three days after Ryland’s latest field-goal miss sealed New England’s 10-7 loss to the Giants on Sunday afternoon.
