Patriots Sign WR Chris Harper to Practice Squad

Patriots have recently announced that they have signed fan favorite Chris Harper to the practice squad after releasing him on Sept 15th.

Harper was signed as an undrafted free-agent out of Cal on May 8th and quickly became a fan favorite. Chris Harper isn’t the biggest receiver (he’s 6’0 and weighs about 180 lbs) but he does have some nice moves to his game. It has to be noted, that while Harper did play pretty well in the preseason, there must be something said for the fact that he went undrafted. I understand that people make mistakes and good talent goes undrafted all the time, but maybe Harper looked good because he was playing against the 2nd and 3rd string.
